Signs of Fall - Collage Friday

 Fall has arrived in Georgia.

This means: lots of time outside, fall baseball, and renewed energy.

Fall is my favorite season. I feel more energized and everything just looks better when the weather starts to cool off.  Can you relate?

School is humming right along. In just another week we will be on a fall break, which is going to be very welcome! The Challenge A program has been difficult, and I'm sure Anna is going to be happy to have a week of no school work! She's been working very hard for the past seven weeks.

The Simple Gifts Are The Biggest Blessings - Collage Friday

 This week has been VERY stressful.

I know I am getting older (and my faith is getting bigger!), because the stressful events of the week just didn't phase me like they would have just a couple of years ago.

No matter what happens to us, I know my God is BIG ENOUGH to handle all of it. HE knows the plans for my life and His plans are for good. 

I'm reminded at every turn that when we focus on OTHERS and not ourselves, our problems seem to melt away.

Latin and Fire Pits - Collage Friday

 

Our weeks contain so much learning - it is impossible to document all that I want to in each Collage Friday.

Each week I have been alternating writing about my son and daughter and what they are doing in Classical Conversations. This seems to work well, so I will stick with this format.

Last week I gave you a peek into my son's at home memory work for Foundations.

This week I'll give you a glimpse into my daughter's world of Challenge A, and also show you a fun project our family completed this week.
