Oh, how happy I am that we made it through the fall semester! Today we are THROUGH!
Jake is testing for two schools in January, and so I have worked him like a DOG (which has worked me like a dog) beefing up his spelling, dictations, vocabulary, and grammar. It was been a wonderful chance, really, to firm up the weak spots. I am overjoyed about it. But boy, are we excited about a break!!
We have also been working so hard on our music. It is rather magical how much progress we have made! It is a real high point of our semester.
I love our homeschool. It is such a peaceful, joyful place. If our children are loving and kind, that is because of our homeschool. Homeschool shapes a different kind of child. I just love it. And truly, it is the best work I could do with my life. I love it.
I do not know how far we will go; some of our teenagers will probably follow Jake's footsteps and find another school. But what does work, works well, and I am so grateful!
Thank you, Lord, for our life. It is a treasure to me!
