First Day of School 2018-2019



We are off and ready to go with another year of school.  It is hard to know when we really stop and begin again as with homeschooling we just kind of keep learning in some degree every day, but it is still nice to check in each year to make new goals and plans for the upcoming year.  We are loving life in the country and the boys are outside all of the time exploring the land, bird watching, building forts or caring for our chickens.  We are looking forward to joining other families in our community this year for a new cooperative learning experience.  We pray for a wonderful year ahead and for God to continue watching over and blessing our family.
