Yes We're Still Alive!!!!!

Hello all ,


Whewwwwwwww, Homeschooling has been one uphill, crazy hard, a lot to get used to battle for sure!!!! It has however, been very well worth all the blood,sweat, and tears though. Well ok so I'm being a little dramatic .......there has been no blood shed!! I think I deserve to dish out just a little drama right? I mean as much as I deal with on a day to day I think I've earned it!! I think if not for a "few" different sets of ears to fill this past month and a half( gotta count the half) I would be sooooo done! Thanks to all who have encouraged and supported me in my decision to be a full time crazy lady!!( There's that drama again:) I won't lie, just in case there may be some mom contemplating homeschooling who's stumbled across this blog, and say that this has been the easiest transition on my journey as a parent it's definitely had it's challenges. We're still learning and changing and change is hard! I like to keep reminding myself that EVERYTHING that's worth ANYTHING is HARD!!! I've learned more about myself and my children since I've started the homeschooling journey than I ever knew before! I've discovered that my children really do think I'm super woman and they love me UNCONDITIONALLY ! I have figured out that I can't please everybody and the ones that I crave acceptance from aren't usually aware that I'm trying to please them at all because they love me "unconditionally"(there's that word again!!) Since my last post I have taken many pics, shocking I know, and Rustin has a post about his very first football game ready to go :) Now there's just getting him to actually post it :) He's all like "MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM why do I have to post it?" I just simply say " because I'm your Mommy and I say so....... so there;)" Check ya later Bloggers!!
