Today is day 180!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The official end of our school year!!! I feel like singing….

Hallelujah! For the Lord our God The Almighty Reigns

Hallelujah! For the Lord our God The Almighty Reigns

Let us rejoice and be glad

And give all glory unto Him

Hallelujah! For the Lord our God The Almight Reigns!

I praise God b/c He has brought us thru our first ‘official’ school year. It has not been easy all the time but He gave me strength to persevere.

Today is gymnastics class for my 6yo. Today is ‘bring a friend’ to gymnastics…my dd wanted to bring her cousin but my sil did not get back to me so I think I’ll ask if her brother(who has his own gymnastics class earlier in the week) can go in with her today.

…and no, I’m not telling them ‘yet’ that school is over. I want to keep them in the mode of our learning schedule so I’m not telling them. We’ll just ‘graduate’ them in ’some way’…maybe take them to Chuckie Cheese on day and tell them they have graduated to the next grade…that will be their celebration, but not just yet..maybe end of June. But for now our quarter ends today…no more quarterly reports until July!!!

Now I look forward to next year. We start in July. Then I’ll have a K and 2nd grader. From May - July we will follow a very light, carefree schedule focusing more on establishing schedule of chores, arithmetic work, and read-aloud, and whatever else they may want to do. I think I’ll start Science since the weather is nice and we can go out and observe what the lessons talk about.

Prayerfully by July I can just ‘fill-in’ with the other necessary subjects.

I feel so light and carefree…a feeling I have not had for quite some time. I love the spring/summer and warm weather….absolutely love it!!!

Anyway, I just wanted to share my joy and heartfelt praise to The One Who Loves Us The Most!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. You are so cute!!! =) I can understand the joy. Even though we’re doing the good thing (home schooling with the PA), a break is greatly appreciated. I LOVE the weekends.

   Anyway, I’m on an all-year schedule so we’re not quite there yet. I think we’ll be finished around the time I’m giving birth (Spet. 22). Then I plan on taking all those three months just to get ready for Kindergarten PA to start up in Jan. and get used to our new schedule with the new baby (prayerfully).

   So anyway, I’M CELEBRATING WITH YA!!!! =)=)=)
