The last month has been crazy hectic. We closed on a house (after weeks of wondering if we ever would), had that house painted and re-floored, 'packed', and moved in a week ago. All, of course, while still trying to maintain the day to day life of a homeschooling family. Two words come to mind thinking about this time: stress & chaos. By the time everything was said and done, I didn't want to make any more decisions. I'd had enough of all the fun decision making I can take. So, our new home is going to be a bit out of whack for a while. I'm okay with that, for now. Mu hubby, on the other hand, not so much! We need some time to just be and breathe. There is lots to be done, and it will get done. I just think it can wait a week. Our homeschool needs to get back in session, like real session. Where we all sit and learn together. The simple joys!
With that said, we ordered some new homeschool curriculum for our 9 y/o - Switched on Schoolhouse. We are eager to receive it in the mail and begin. We only ordered Language Arts and Science but it's exciting. Mainly because we haven't had a real science curriculum yet. Language arts we've been bouncing around with different things, so this should be great. Plus, the fact that it is computer based is wonderful. My 9 y/o LOVES the computer! And, it will give me extra time to work with my 7 y/o, whom does NOT love the computer. =) We're sticking to our Horizons and Explode the Code for him. It works and he likes it, that's all that matters.
On an unrelated note, our 7 month old thinks she wants to crawl. Like, she really WANTS to! I am not ready. But, I guess that doesn't really matter, does it?
Have a fabulous weekend friends! Enjoy each day that the Lord has given us! Each day is a new, wonderful adventure just waiting to happen.
Will was walking at 8 months. It was terrible. Just keep pushing that baby down.
ReplyDeleteUm...so sometime can we come over and really LOOK at SOS? I'm thinking of getting it in June when we get a discount on rent, haha.
