I have started this post I don't even know how many times and keep deleting everything I write. Hmmm, how do you start again after 2 months of
The garden has grown, produced, flopped and is regrowing again! We have harvested some things and enjoyed them, although more would always be better! Right now, the tomatoes, green peppers, eggplant and watermelon are coming back, so we'll see what happens... In the process, I have learned some life lessons from my garden that I may just share on here.
We are doing school over the summer, just much more laid back. Holly is taking 2 classes online and is very diligently working toward completing them. MaKenna is finishing math and just finished science. Caleb is maintaining and practicing math and reading. We are enjoying the flexibility of summer and spending time doing some less structured things while staying on top of their education at the same time!
Graduation parties, Kid's Connection, Ladies Prayer, Girl's Volleyball, Birthday parties, helping friends, hanging out with friends - old and new, school, the beach, lesson planning (LOTS - more on that later, too), cooking and baking, organizing and reorganizing, taking walks, crafts, sewing, swimming, reading, Bible Study and prayer are just some of the ways that we fill our days around here. We are loving summer and life! Just being together in all that we do makes all that we do worthwhile.
So, there is a quick recap, though it doesn't quite do it justice. Maybe just getting over this hurdle will get me going in the right direction, though and blogging will become part of the schedule again! In the meantime, I pray that you are enjoying your family and your summer!
