Unit Study Day

1-3 grade Learning about the Inaguration Process
Bella & Emily Frolicking in the snow

Today, Friday was our day for our monthly CHES Unit Study on US government. Emily had a blast. We got to see some friends we hadn't seen since before the holidays. I had promised a trip with bikes to Camelot park earlier in the week and had to renegotiate...there is still snow, and I don't really think it's up to the 58 degrees the weatherman promised. We went to
Chick-fi-la instead and all was well (I bribed them with the promise of ice cream, which we hardly ever have when we're there). Some other families were there and I got some adult conversation...and confirmation that home schooling is the right choice for us right now...so I'll start looking at third grade and pre-school curriculum for next year soon.
We're all a little tired from our late night last night and all the people in this house are grumpy and we have another busy night with a dinner with our friends from Merida, Mexico at church tonight. I think I'll see if I can find a babysitter for Nate...he's still complaining of his tummy hurting at times.

Unexpected Blessings, Birds and Bees

Well, yesterday was an interesting day. It came on the heels of a weekend of sickness, both Nate and Joe. Nate was officially diagnosed with croup and exacerbation of asthma and is still taking steroids and sounds worse, but the light at the end of the tunnel is on! Joe stayed in all weekend and sounded almost as bad as Nate minus the wheezing. We kept our family home (even from church, small group, etc) feeling like hermits. And, even though the boys were both sick, I picked up sweet Bella the dog on Saturday from a friend who works with the NC Lab rescue group. We know we eventually want another dog, but not until Nate is old enough to handle it. Bella, a one year old yellow lab- sheltie mix, house-broken, crate-trained 28 pound sweet girl, is going to spend a little time at our house and see how it goes. The kids think we're pet-sitting to help out Mrs. D, which is true, sort-of. The sweetest moment came yesterday when Nate gave a bedtime blessing to Bella the Dog. &qu

Overheard from the front seat of the Mini-van...

Nate: "mommy is E (a friend's son) 2 or 4? Me: "He's 2" Nate: "Well, that's not far from 4" Nate: After a moment "Mommy, How did E's Mommy get the baby sissy in her tummy" Me: "Well, it's pretty cool...God made a very special way for Mommy's and Daddy's to grow a baby in Mommies' tummies kinda like planting a seed" Nate: "Can boys have babies" Me: "No, God just gave mommies the special parts to have a baby in their tummies" Nate: "I want you to get a baby in your tummy" Me: "Well, Mommies parts don't work to have babies anymore" Nate: "Mommy, how old do I have to be to play basketball...."
