Mid-Semester

I truly feel like we should be at the mid-year mark in school,

but I guess we are only about a fourth of the
way into it, huh?

Well,
I'd love to know how many of you are doing!

It seems that we have finally found a routine that works
for us...
just in time for it all to change because of
a VERY busy basketball season quickly approaching.

And I also have those days that I don't think I can go
any further in homeschooling.
Not that I don't like it or am not willing to
give it my all...
it is just really difficult on days when my kiddos
are so whiney about it all.
And then there's my 3 year old who demands attention
almost constantly.

It's exhausting.

But, thankfully we do have some really good
days that keep me going.

And I also have a WONDERFUL homeschool
mentor (Martha) who is ALWAYS there
for me when I need encouragement.
Seriously everyone,
if you don't have a Martha of your own,
you need to find one!

Plus my sweet husband is VERY
supportive and listens intently when I
bring him my concerns and complaints, which somehow
always leaves me a little refreshed.

So,
I guess for us...at least for now,
we are holding our own and pressing on!

How 'bout you?!
