First year of Homeschooling

Well it's hard to believe that we have already finished our first quarter.  It has flown by, which is a good thing!! We have each had good days and bad days.  I have to say for the most part there have only been a few bad ones!! Issac is flying through math and will begin working on multiplication next week.  He has been doing great with all the addition and subtraction we give him, so we're looking forward to moving on to more challenging work!  We both struggle with English, I'm learning right along with him for parts of it. But we are moving along.  One thing we both learned about were onomatopoeia's are words that writers use to express the sound you are reading!   He is enjoying reading now that he's found he enjoys chapter books and has found joy in finishing a whole book.

Aaron is enjoying his homework too

 One of his English assignments he enjoyed learning how to follow directions.

Mastered doing work on the go!

Issac has been able to play with a fall league in Batesville and has been doing great!!

My baby is 4

It's hard to believe that 4 years ago we were a family of three for just a few hours before our latest addition.  This boy loves God, his brother and sugar!!  And he is a sweet one!! Looking forward to many more years with this spunky little boy.

Mirror mirror in my sons

The biggest frustration I gather from my children's behavior is that they are just like me. Their bad attitudes, laziness and language is just like a reflection in the mirror. It upsets me because those are the things I don't like about myself and I find it difficult to discipline when I am just as guilty. But it is teaching me to want to be more like our heavenly Father. He loves it when we are a reflection of his grace , love and compassion.
