Yes, we are still here.

No, we have not fallen off the face of the earth, or spontaneously combusted, nor has the rapture occurred. I am just trying to get my school planning done because the kids are dying to start school by the first week in September. Which is in less than two weeks.

So, I am trying to get everything finished and planned because you all know, because I've said it a million times, that I like to get my planning done over the summer. No more planning gets done by me during the school year. So, if we are doing it, I have to plan it now.

Yes, I did say the kids are "dying to" start school, not "dying at the thought of" starting school. I try to make it interesting to me fun for them and they also enjoy the structure our day has when we are doing school. I do have to occasionally remind them of this when they are complaining about their math lesson. Or the occasional spelling lesson.

  1. Ryan & Camden are itching to get back to school. Still trying to gather a few things for the school year. But, hoping to have a really fun year this year. A lot of that is in thanks to you! I truly appreciate all the resources you share with us!

  4. I can't imagine preparing so many lessons! How do you balance all of your time? I have several friends at work who home-school as well. They have this rather large group of 15 families or so where they rotate classes (or houses I guess) each day of the week.

    Love the photo in your header. That's a great shot. THanks for stopping by my blog!
