We started high school this week! Then I realized I needed more curriclum, bummer! NO, it's OK, I just thought I was a little more organized than I found out I was. We are still proceeding with the books we have and will pick up as we get the new stuff in.
Here is our curriculum for this year:
Language Arts: SOS English, Tricks of the Trade Spelling and The Write Help
Math: we are reviewing, then starting Math U See Pre-Algebra
Science: ABEKA Physical Science
History/Geography: Mystery of History
Bible: Call to Prayer, Words of Wisdom - Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Tapestry of Grace Church History
Foreign Language: Step by Step Spanish
Health: SOS Health
I'm sure things will be added as we go but it sure feels good to have a plan. How has your year started off?
Blessings,

God and List
This post was written almost 2 weeks ago. My computer wouldn't post it for some reason. I'm going to try again.
Blessings,
Terri Sue
I tried earlier this week to post but it got zapped to cyberspace somehow. In that post I shared how as my life has gotten busier over the last week , I had started making list and catorgizing everything. Friends who know me, know that list aren't my thing and most of the time when I make then they get lost! Anyway, after making all my lists, I think I have 5 going right now, I realized that no where in those list was God. I hadn't prayed over them, asked God about them or even just spent some still time with Him seeing if I needed to make those list.
Today, being Friday, I look back on my week and realize that though I didn't get much done on my lists, I got a lot done with my Lord. B and I are taking a Bible class together. It is about how to effectively study your Bible. I didn't realize how much I needed to learn! I have spent a lot of time in prayer over my lists. I also spent a wonderful afternoon with a special friend, sharing my lists and getting things into perspective.
Now I know that my other post wasn't supposed to go out there. I didn't have my priorities straight. I know feel, with Gods help, I can remake my list. I feel better about them and I know I will accomplish more!
My prayer for you is that you will take time out and spend time with the Lord. He will guide your way!
Isaiah 30:21 "Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way: walk in it.""

Homeschooling High School
I cannot believe we are at this point in our journey. We are starting high school! My emotions are on a roller coaster, so proud of how our son has grown and so sad that he's not a little boy any more. This year he grew taller than me, stronger than me and smarter than me when it comes to the computer but he's still my little boy.
We went to Wal-mart today and I just stood in the school supply isle looking at the crayons, constuction paper and safety scissors knowing we won't be buying that anymore. But it was exciting to know we needed a new calculator, more grown up pens and maybe a white board calender!
This is a start of a new season and I hope to blog about it. I'm excited but scared, I have all those feelings of "can I really do this" but know that God is with me every step of the way. So, if you are starting a new season come join me on the journey! We have so much to learn!
