A new start..

It has been forever since I have been on here. It seems the move and divorce took a lot out of me and a lot of changes have taken place in our world. In the past year and a half we have managed to stay afloat during three job changes, one child moving out, a new child moving in and countless hurdles we have crossed. Now were facing another hurdle but God is good and we were far more prepared for this one....

So all the kids have been in public school since we moved here. And Honestly I have no complaints. The schools here are really good and the teachers and staff have been great. So I have put homeschool in the back of my mind. But over the past few months Phoenix has been missing more and more school due to his intestinal issues and migraines. Now its getting to the point between specialist appointments and flareups he is almost never able to go to school. At the same time this started I started a new job working at home on a night shift doing customer service for a major video game company. Its like God was saying look I gave you the way now do it! So now we are preparing to bring Phoenix and probably Gryphen home again. We are clearing out and decorating the room across from my office for a school room, searching out all the curriculum I so lovingly chose and making sure we order any updates needed for their current ages. And hope to be able to start schooling within the next month. I have to be 100% ready as working at home and being the only adult in my house is going to be a lot different than all the years I homeschooled while married and at home. But its definitely what we need to do...

So the plan is to use Winters Promise Adventures in Sea and Sky and Children of the World...since I have so many excellent curriculums I am going to do a lot of combining on Children of the World...using Galloping the Globe and Exploring Countries and Cultures to turn it into a two or even three year Geography program. I am so blessed and i believe the only things I am going to need to buy is new language arts and spelling books from Queen's homeschool catalog.

If anyone out there reads this I do need some help. First I need TONS of prayers. I am more scared of this endeavor than of the nine years I spent homeschooling the older kids combined!!!
Also I deleted all the blogs I loved and followed. I am looking for inspirational blogs, especially ones that use our same curriculums.


Blessings~
