The School of Life Mastery

With the craziness of school starting, I decided to take the leap and sign up for a class I have been excited about for 2 years. I signed up on Monday for the School of Life Mastery and I am loving it! These are the online classes for Leslie Householder, the author of the JackRabbit Factor. This book had a profound effect on my life, and I have since read all her other books. I have taken the Orientation class and Lesson One. I am wanting to really absorb the classes, so I am taking it slow (even though I feel like I want to run through them all and gobble them up!)

I am also rereading the JackRabbit Factor, since that is part of the "homework" and I am reminded what a wonderful parable it is!  So, for right now I am signing off to go on to Lesson Two, but I just want to say I think I want to teach this kind of stuff! I love it!!!!

Hurrah for Abundance...

Life and it's craziness

So, yet again it has been a long and crazy time since last updating my blog. Scott and I have moved to a two bedroom duplex that my brother, Nathan, bought. We moved in the weekend before school started, so it has been quite the last few weeks!

Danny is officially school age now, so I have been actively home-schooling him for three weeks. We are working on his reading and writing skills right now, and then I will be adding numbers and math next week. It has been a lot of fun to sit down with Danny (and Tiana joins in most of the time) and I am learning about how to keep it fun for a 5 year old.

We wake up in the morning, and after we clear breakfast down we do a quick clean of the house. Dishes and toys picked up, we have scripture study together before hitting the kitchen table for "school." Danny and Tiana are also doing a performance class called Stages once a week, where they sing and dance. So far, so good. All in all, school is usually finished by 10 or 11am, and the kids play and I unpack our home. I am just starting to put pictures up on the wall! Meanwhile, my camera broke, so pictures will be harder to post... I have to figure out how to do it from my phone.
