And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. Deuteronomy 6:6-9

One Month Down...

Hard to believe, we have done one month of home school. It feels good to have a little time under my belt, and I am loving the decision to stay home with the kids. We have settled into a routine that seems to work for us, and we are getting things done. It is a blessing to see the kids learning. Everyday I see improvement in Ellie's work ethic. And the biggest blessing to me has been discovering that all this time when I thought John Thomas was not paying attention, he has actually picked up on all kinds of things right along with Ellie. He can even tell you the definition of a noun, although probably will not if you ask him to do it. :-) I feel so very blessed to have this time with kids, and that blessing makes the challenges so worthwhile! Enjoy the pictures!
