Have not post in a while and I am sorry.  Been fighting bronchitis since Thanksgiving.  We are still pushing through.  I have relaxed a little about homeschooling.  After the shooting last week I am just happy that I have the privilege of keeping my kids at home with me where they are safe.  We will learn as we go.
Daughters hearing loss is still progressing.  She know is in the moderate range for hearing loss.  They say it can not be corrected so we will just have to do routine hearing tests so we can keep her hearing aides adjusted.

Hello Everyone!  I keep getting behind on my blogging.  We are doing well.  I am still organizing my school area but looking forward to getting to some hard work with my kids.  I fixed them a rule board this week.  I will try to post a pic later.  Trying to get some kind of order in this house.
Still got to start doing sign language with my daughter as her hearing keeps getting worse.

My family joined a local church a few weeks ago.  I am really enjoying attending.  My children loves the kids activities.  Makes my heart feel good to see them so excited about Jesus and going to church.

Been a little while since I posted but things have been hectic.  I had a bad sinus infection and bronchitis last week so I did not accomplish much.  But I am so excited this week.  I bought several workbooks from a teacher who is selling out her classroom.  She gave me a great deal and I got about 20 books.  Then I found a copier on Craigslist for free as is.  So we picked it up, bought toner for it and it works.  Could not beat that. 
Kids are ready for me to get school back to organized and then we can all get to work.

Hope everyone is having a great week.

Talk to you later

Sorry todays post is not just about homeschooling.   Today is a day that I just need to vent.  It is a day I just am ready to quit.  My oldest who has a eating disorder I can not get any help for.  They just give me nausea medicine for him and send us home.  My husband thinks it should be as simple as telling him to quit eating and quit vomiting and my son should be able to turn it off.
I feel so alone.  Took 4 days just to get someone to carry the garbage out for me then I did it myself.  Son said did not feel well enough and husband said it was sons job and he was capable of doing it so he did not have to.
Why can't family see how much I need support.  I recently just rededicated my life to God but my faith is struggling.  I have been fighting these same battles for years and I am tired.

Sorry for the rambling just had to get it off my chest.

I am so excited finally got my youngest to write the letters A and B.  He also as learned to spell his name and can recognize part of the letters that are in his name.  Patients does pay off. 
I also found some great reference printables at printables.scholastic.com/printables.  Now I can work on my kids reference notebooks I am preparing.

Hope everyone has had a great week so far.

Haven't posted in a few days been really busy.  Found me an old bookcase like the ones in the old school libraries.  I really love it.  So been organizing and redoing school room the last few days.  Hope to get pics up soon.  Looking forward to the fall season.  Now to get the kids on a better routine.  God is good all the time.  All the time God is good.

Have a blessed day

This has been a crazy week.  My youngest and myself have been sick.  Our puppy hate the cords into on my TV and on the school computer.  So it has been a trying week.  On the brighter side I really enjoyed church last night.  It makes my heart smile to see my kids excited about there classes at church.  When we get out they all three start talking to me at the same time to tell me what they learned.  GOD is good. 
So my plan today is to get some cleaning and organizing done so that we can get back on the school track.

Hope everyone has a great Thursday.

Hi!  Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Ours was pretty good.  Really enjoyed our church service yesterday.  The Lord has been teaching me some good lessons over the last month in church.  Everything I have prayed about or looked for answers for the lord as led the preacher to preach on.

My PDD-NOS/bipolar child had a meltdown Saturday night.  But he seems to feel better since it is over.

My youngest and I both are sick right now so taking it easy.

Everyday is a new day.  Don't give up just keep looking up.

God Bless You

This is one of those mornings I wake up and look around and say Can I do this?  My house is a mess, my daughter is sick and I don't have the day planned yet.  But I have decided it is not Can I do it I have to say I am going to this.  This is what is best for my children and that is what I need to do.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Well, I am trying to figure out what I am doing here.  I hope I don't come across to dumb.

This is my second year of homeschooling.  I still don't have an organized routine.  We I decided to pull my dd out of public school last year and homeschool it was only because of her auditory processing disorder.  Then this year I put my oldest ds in ps and was going to hs my dd and youngest ds.  Well, as this school year as progressed my daughter as lost 60-70% of her hearing.  It is caused from genetics.  My youngest I started kindergarten with this year and he is developmentally delayed when it comes to academics and speech.  And I am having a rough time getting him to learn his ABCs, numbers, how to spell or write his name.  Then I had to pull my oldest out of ps 2 weeks after school started because he was stressed so much that he developed an eating disorder. 
So right now we are muddling through but we will never give up hope.
