It's been awhile...

Yes...I am behind! It has been a fabulously crazy busy last few months and I have missed blogging/writing like crazy! Glad to be back at it! What a busy few months we have had with our first year of homeschooling and trying to find some normalcy to our days. I have loved having my boys at home and being the one to teach and pour into them daily. It has been great to see them grown, learn and accomplish new things daily. It isn't easy. It's lots of work. But it is so worth it. Our days are crazy and the weeks and days tend to get away from me. Probably the biggest struggle is finding that balance...as I laugh out loud. There is no balance and there is no normal! Every day is different and brings on its next struggle and hurdle to overcome but we are making it. With four kids...three in school...on three different levels... and a 3 year old to still make happy and spend time with isn't always easy. Some days I am kicking myself feeling I have neglected him or not spent enough time with the other boys. But at the end of the day I just have to chalk it up to I have done my best and that is all I can do! I am getting to spend so much more time with them than I have in several years and I love that. Mom is learning also! I have found that all that "stuff" I did back in high school...must have sunk in a little. We have been working on Algebra which was not my favorite in school but has come back to me as well as all the diagramming. Can't say I remember all of it because I remember the lines going a few ways but some of this has been ridiculous! But we are all learning together and what we don't know we will figure out. Feeling very blessed that God has given me this opportunity to pour into my kids. Blessed that I have been given the opportunity for my kids to pour into me on a daily basis. They teach me something new every day. Blessed!
