First Day of School of our 10th Year

I promise it wasn’t this week!! It was September 5th. Even though we homeschool I still have a “first day” of school each year. It’s the day we start new curriculum and it usually comes after some sort of break. This year we took the whole month of August off. Next year I’m aiming for most of the summer!

Samantha is in the 7th grade and 12 years old.

Hannah likes to pose – had to include it!

Leah is 2 years old and only sits at the table when she chooses. Except for Bible first thing. Then she has to sit there. She complains about it though!

On a side note, we have always sat wherever at the table. This year I have 2 little girls that were causing some issues, so now everyone has assigned seats for school and for meals – the ones you see them sitting in are not their current spots! I had to put Hannah closer to me.

Bible Reading Plan

I have a few different plans saved in my bookmark. A friend even mailed me a little booklet of a nice one that has “catch up days.” It’s from Grace and Truth Books.

But today I came across this awesome plan. I love that each day is reading from just ONE book. As soon as I saw the plan it dawned on me what I didn’t like about trying to follow other plans – I don’t like the skipping around each day. I love that with this plan I can just focus on that one book for that day.

Thanks to Ann at Heart of the Matter Online for sharing that with us. I’ve printed one out for myself and Samantha.
