Jan. 2, 2006 - pity party is over...
after a few days of feeling sorry for myself, i decided this morning to snap out of it and get a grip. we started school back up today and then the boys and i went to the park (it was 80 degrees here today) and they ran and played for an hour.
i'm still reading 'the excellent wife' and we're preparing to start a mom's bible study on 'shepherding a child's heart' which i've read a gazillion times. the tuesday morning ladies bible study group at church is staring the new beth moore study next week and i'm dying to go, but we have mops starting up again and that would be 3 mornings a week that we'd miss school. so i'm trying to come up with a way to manage without missing too much 'school time' --- then it occurs to me -- why do we have to do school in the a.m.? could we do afternoons? hmm...might be easier w/ the two year old napping anyway. something to think about......

We do a lot of school in the afternoon because it is much easier when the little ones are napping. Isn't it nice to be able to work with the rhythmns of your family? :-D

I'm glad you are still reading The Excellent Wife. Feel free to post any other comments on this book over on my site! I'm glad you are feeling a bit better, and it sounds like you are gearing up to be pretty busy! xo Jeani

we sometimes do school in the afternoon. Although it's hard for E, because he likes his routine. We are also blessed by early risers--so we do school at breakfast and right after, and we're done by 9 nearly every day! Plenty of time for all of our morning activities (pretty much one a day).
