The Fun Begins!!!

Post by psreit » Thu Oct 07, 2010 3:36 pm

I had shared a while back that we were going to care for a newborn while the mother is incarcerated. Well, yesterday we brought her home from the hospital. She's adorable. Our dd7 just loves her. It's going to be tough getting school done. Angie wants to be mom instead of kid. :) She said she doesn't want to play since the baby came. :shock: Maybe when the newness wears off, she will get 'back to normal'? I hope so. She is constantly 'Mom, can I hold her?' or 'Mom, can I feed her?' etc. etc. We may have this baby for a year or more, so I need to get a new system. Pray for our family as we care for this baby and also minister to her mother. They are bitter-sweet circumstances, but we are loving this opportunity.

Pray that I can adequately continue to school Angie. I know some family members are wondering how I will be able to do it with a baby to care for. They were ps'ers, so they don't understand us homeschoolers. :wink: We will just have double the fun. HOD has been a wonderful fit for us. I know that even with this new little one, we will continue on a solid course through LHFHG. I just need to get organized. :? Let the fun begin! :D

Praying for you and seconding Tansy's suggestion! Nap time is the ticket (at least until the newness for your other dd wears off). :D
