This video has really touched my life lately , enjoy !!!!
I saw this and just wanted to post it on my site, I have felt lately that we need to encourage one another in the Lord. There are a lott of homeschool Mom’s who are going through some trying times with issues in their lives that I think really need a lott of us to encourage them. Im not saying Im not going through things because I am, but I know how I feel when someone has something kind or encouraging to say to me and a lott of times it lifts my spirit up.
Just thinking about getting back on track to start school is mind boggling to me right now, as we now have all of our children back home due to some unusual circumstances. But I will be homeschooling 4 this year and taking care of my new grandson Isaac who is now 4 1/2 mos old. And my other daughter is pregnant and due in January, so I dont know how all this will fall into place but I know with the Lord’s help I can do anything.
I spent most of the morning cleaning out my supply cabinet, getting books together to sell so I can buy some new curriculum for the children. I wrote out my curriculum list for each of the children last night,

Saturday we went to Valdosta, we went to BAM and then to the mall. We had Noah”s birthday party Saturday night. He got a BB gun , video games, dinosaur series set. I think he had a good time… We we’re able to spend a little time with Brittany over the weekend , which was nice. She went to the OB dr on Friday, everything looks good . She got to hear the baby’s heartbeat. So cool!!!
I just read this awesome update on a young man in Florida named Shawn Woodall, here is the story so click on it and be blessed.
A few years ago I read this story in the newspaper and was so moved by his Dad’s cry for help for Shawn and now he has something to praise God for….
Im working on my curriculum and books I will be using this year, and Im going to be using Homeschool Tracker www.homeschooltracker.com this is a great program to use to keep everything in order. Ive been talking to a friend of mine who HS’s a big family too and she has been such an inspiration to me . Also remember to keep praying for Robin Scarletta she is in need of healing. I just love her site and some of the things she writes about she is such an inspiration to me . www.heartofwisdom.com
I have been reading Heather’s post for sometime now, and what a ministry she has. I really dont think she really realizes how many people’s lives she is touching. I remember reading in one of Joyce Meyer’s books about how God can use your tests for a testimony. I really know when we are going through things that God can use us to minister to others who are going through the same thing . I think we really have to be sensitive to the wooing of the Holy Spirit sometimes because you never know who you will run into.
I believe in the times we’re in that we have to be so sensitive to the Lord’s direction. There are so many people even in the christian community that have no hope, and we have to be light in the darkness. I am reading a really great book by Lisa Bevere and boy its has really minstered to me. Well Heather sweetie we are praying for you, and know we serve a “BIG” God and know he has your life in his hands, Psalm 139:1- 18.
