Box Day!!!

I finally did it, I "let go and let God". We are officially a home school family! Man that feels good to announce :) I have always believed God wanted me to home school our boys but I was so afraid. God even put people in my life at every turn that home school and were very successful at it and I still couldn't give in. I feel that every step our family has taken since day one has lead us to a clear path to home school. Then there were all the obstacles that came our way that made it ever easier to make the decision. I am always asking God to show me His plan, "God just TELL me clearly what you want me to do with my life. If you want me to do _____, just make it so clear that I KNOW it's what you want for me." And that's what He did, over and over again. I am so proud to be a home school family, I am no longer afraid and I am even REALLY REALLY excited and confident about it. I have told all my friends, let me known to strangers and even my family knows. Now all I have to do it let it be known to my grandmother.....wish me luck! :/


Today was a Box Day, Yay!!! This was actually our second box day from Sonlight. This was a smaller box with just Science and Language Arts Activity Sheets and The Timeline Figures. We were very thankful to have found Core K used on the Sonlight Fourms so all we had to order were the consumables.
We had previously ordered Horizons Math 1 including the Manipulatives and we also ordered Handwriting Without Tears 1 and the MathTacular DvD. Once we get our big box containing the Core K, we will be ready to rock and roll!! It couldn't come soon enough either because Blaine has been very antsy to start :) I don't know who's more excited, me or him!
