Done with week 1

We have had a great first week of school this year! We spent time this week learning about Christ as the Light of the World, studying the North American Indian tribes, making our own tee-pees and a wigwam, memorizing the locations of the 50 states via puzzles, re-visiting the Jamestown settlement, reading a variety of delicious literature, learning about the universe and the stars and sun...and doing it all with joy! Oh, and we did some spelling, math, art, music and health too!

Isaac is very interested in "doing schoolwork" too. He can actually complete the entire US States puzzle on his own (and for some reason usually turns the frame upside down too....)! I think he's a 2 year old (until tomorrow anyway) genius!

Emma is really enjoying her time at King's Kids each morning. She loves to bring home her backpack and show us what she's been drawing for us. I know she is making friends there and loves the time with Daddy in his office alone each day (she goes there for an hour after school ends before Daddy comes home for lunch).

Abby is happy to color and do puzzles and sing at the top of her lungs "A-MEN, A-MEN, A-MEN, A-MEN" etc. or the VeggieTales themesong (along with Isaac).

Lauren is currently content to crawl around and when she catches a glimpse of you to say something in her adorable baby babble or even "Hiya" with a backwards wave!

What a blessing from God that He has allowed me this time to raise His children.
