So here we are again....... at the beginning of a brand new journey (biting my fingernails).
Lots of things have changed, and lots are still changing around the Carmouche household!! I'm happy to say that YES, we did make it successfully (and safely) through the 2011-2012 school year! (Lots of excitement about that!!!!!!!) This year is going to have it's new challenges I'm sure......... but I'm super ready for them all..... well maybe not ALL of them but for the most part I'm ready. I've got my super mom cape out and ironed, just in case ;) Okay so now to talk about the "God Send" that I mentioned before. After almost two full school years of research we decided to enroll our children in an online virtual charter school, K12, as with everything I'm sure it'll have it's flaws but here's what I know...... There will be real adults behind the scenes helping me along the way( My very own sidekicks as I like to call them, because I am still the super hero after all ;) It's an actual school that has actual teachers lol (again, HELP) not that mommies can't teach their babies.... I don't believe you need a degree for that :) I have loved every moment of having a say in how my children are taught but am WIDE open to accepting the help they can offer:) My Darling Faith is entering her freshman year of high school in just a few short days:( :) I have mixed emotions about this..... I am so very proud of the young lady she has become but awfully sad about how fast it all happened...... She is soon to be FOURTEEN years old.... and 5'8" I mean really?? Rustin isn't far behind at almost 13 and starting his 7th grade year....... he is so much his father's son!!! ( yes that makes me happy) If you've ever had the privilege of meeting Rusty you know exactly what I mean :) He has been holding down a "summer" job for about 3 months now cutting grass:) which BTW if you need a lawn guy ........ Rustin is your guy!! Reece just recently turned 9 and he still loves his mommy more than he will ever love another woman in the entire world ( just let me savor it guys....) His little personality has grown so much this past year, of course he still LOVES Lego's and will one day co-own the entire lego corporation, along with his best cousin buddy Ethan of course!! He will be entering 4th grade...... Grace just turned 8 and is sprouting like a little weed..... or like a sunflower.....Little girls are just to pretty to be compared to weeds;) She has lost and gained so many teeth I've lost count! The tooth fairy must be taking a second job just to be able to afford it!! Grace is starting her 3rd grade year:) I'm almost useless around here...... ALMOST lol There are many many more things I could jot here but sometimes I think my life is more interesting than other people do so I'll save it ;) I really want to start blogging more than I did last year.... please please send me links to the best bloggers out there for crazy ladies who manage crazy households and come out smelling a little like roses!! I just wanna know I'm not alone :)
