Taking the plunge!
Taking the plunge!
We are excited here in our house as we get ready to start PHFHG and LHFHG at half speed , three days a week beginning tomorrow. We were going to start in Sept. when my DD starts her school. But decided to get some schooling in so we can take some time off in February when our new BABY joins our crew! (thanks Mom2Monkeys for helping me through the emotions of it all) For those of you who prayed me through our M/C in May, rejoice with me as we hit 10 wks with baby #9 today! We know that we will all meet our #8 when we see each other in Heaven for the first time. Won't that little one feel some chaotic love!!! We still feel the sadness of our loss but we know we are so blessed to have the peace and comfort of the Lord. I don't know how people do without it. We are thrilled for this baby and the kids just found out this week and are loving the idea of "time off" in FEb. Anyway! Can't wait to start!
I put all of the tm's and regular read alouds, English TM's etc. in one of those spinning black desk office things from Staples. One of my big problems was always losing the books I needed on a regular basis. I am excited to keep the kids daily things in a "workbox tote" and mine in the spinning office. That, for me, is really orgainzed:) We shall see! Hopefully, I can figure out how to post pics in the weekly check in!

Re: Taking the plunge!
Hi Rebecca,
Congratulations! I'm so happy to hear you are expecting! I remember when you had your miscarriage and I prayed for you and your family. I had a miscarriage a few years back, and it was a painful experience to lose a little one. My heart goes out to you as I know the healing takes a while. But I also rejoice with you as you wait for this new little one to arrive!
I will pray that your "plunge" into HOD goes well. We will be taking the "plunge" as well this fall, and I look forward to hearing how things are going with your adventure in HOD!
Many Blessings,
Shelly

Re: Taking the plunge!
Rebecca,
Just wanted to share in your excitement and say congratulations, how blessed you and your family are!
I love the idea of the "spinning office thingy" that you mentioned. I totally relate to always "losing" books, and I typically find myself searching for one just as we need it. I am trying to add some more organization to our schooling so that things run more smoothly.
Anyway, I am going to search Staples and see if I can find what you were talking about as far as the organizer "thingy".
Enjoy your day tomorrow!

Re: Taking the plunge!
Here's the link to the office desk organizer. I have had it around for a while. Now it is perfect. I am putting my TM's in the center (where you would put hanging files) and the read alouds in one of the side pockets, the TM's for LA pockets, etc. I am excited.

Rebecca,
Congratulations! I'm so glad to hear that you've been blessed with another pregnancy! That is exciting.
I bet you're excited to dive into Preparing and LHFHG, too. (I'm going to be close on your heels with those programs in about a month. ) Have fun!
