Crazy just took on new meaning

By
Things are more than a little crazy around here today.

Actually it began last night when Seth broke his foot (in at least 2 places). Then I forgot to give the dog away before the roofing company came this morning.

Boomboomboom. Woofwoofwoofwoof. Boomboomboomwoof woof woof. “Mommy! Please carry me!” Boomboom. Arfarf. “Mommy! Help!” Yeah, you got the idea.

“Girl, you gotta get outta there for awhile,” my friend said when she called this morning.

I’m laughing, I really am. The normal sounds of a house of boys will sound like peace and quiet after this! Another cry for help...Gotta run.

I'd be there in a heartbeat too if you were still just down the road! I am so sorry about Seth's foot :( And Riley, Well, she just needs to come back to our house for a few days to let you catch your breath.
Take care!
Love you girl,
Laura

Oh Amy! I am so sorry. Glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. You made me laugh even though my heart constricted at the same time. Prayers.

Homeschooling Curriculum Help?

By
Shannon is hosting a backwards edition of what-works-for-me Wednesday , where you can ask for advice/ or suggestions instead of giving them. Yeah! I need some advice. David and I are really praying and considering homeschooling our boys, K4 and grades 2 and 6 —beginning this fall. Can anybody recommend a curriculum, either as a whole or as a subject, that you are crazy about that doesn’t make you crazy? Secondly, if you could give one tip for “survival” what would that be?

If I were talking to the Roses this evening, I would tell them that Amy is desperately scared. The docs have given her a very stiff dose of antibiotics, but as of this moment, her body temp is climbing once again. Her primary doctor told her he fears that this infection may be fungal in nature. I don’t completely understand all of the implications, except that we are shooting at this infection with our biggest guns, but it just keeps on coming. In her introspective manner, she shared with me today that if she had known she would lose her sight, she would have invested it more wisely in the things she read and watched: “What if I go completely blind and can’t read the Bible? I have to get more serious about memorizing.” This morning a do

March 2: HOME!!

By
From his vantage point at our front door, three-year old Seth delightedly shrieked, "Mommy," and I turned in time to see Amy being driven down our long driveway. Our three blond-haired boys buried their faces in their mother. Even the house sighed contentedly. Amy's home. A Happy Husband, David
