Homestretch

We are getting into the homestretch for ds#2. He will be graduating in 2 months, AAGH! He has finished his English (Anylitical Grammar), British Literature (ABEKA), he has a few more subjects to go and then..that's it! :(  This is always a bittersweet time for me, I'm so excited to see what God has for them in their adult life, on the other hand I will (and do) miss the sweetness of their baby years, the rowdiness of their elementary and early teen years, and the blossoming into adulthood of their older teen years.  We are so proud of the young men our boys have become. They have such a heart for the things of the Lord, their desire to be in His perfect will is so amazing to both my dh and myself.

I still have four more youngins' to homeschool, Grace is still in preschool so I will be at home, schooling the children for quite some time!:-} 

The other day I was sitting at the table watching the girls do school in their princess dresses, #4 was dressed in his cowboy garb (holsters, guns, and knife included) doing math, #3 was on his bed reading and #2 was working on his presentation for his graduation, what a wonderful life I have been allowed to give my children. The Lord has been so gracious and kind to us, I am constantly amazed at His goodness and mercy!!!
