After much thought and consideration and prayer, I have decided to take Jessie on board to homeschool in a few weeks. Zoe--not at this time. I got some, inspirational, confirmational, lovely Bible verses in response to my diligent inquiries of God about whether I should go for it. Still, I am nervous about the work load. It's funny, when school ended, I seemed to check out of extra toil and thought, and sleep as much as possible for 2 straight months. Now, all of a sudden, I'm ready to be a zealous, diligent, overworked, organized dynamo. This really shocks me. The break was so great. The inertia so complete. But I truly have a sense of great purpose and urgency taking on another child to home school.

Lori, that's wonderful! I'm so glad you're going to be able to homeschool Jessie too. May the enthusiasm and excitement and sense of purpose continue right through the end of the year!

We're starting up our school year tomorrow, and for the first time I'm going to get a small feel for teaching more than one at at time. Chloe is eager to do school too. I don't know how moms do it, but I'm about to find out!

Bravo, Harold! I'll be praying for you that you'll have an extra dose of patience, strength, organization, and all that jazz! I feel bad about the piano lessons, but keep in mind that Kaitlin teaches piano as well as violin. Might be a good option. (Too bad she's not free. ;-)
