Our school year has begun

We started our school year on Monday. Micah started Kindergarten and Ethan started first grade. My eager learner is Micah. He is starting way ahead of where Ethan started in K. He loves organization and patterns and orderly processes. Ethan just wants to "get 'er done". He works really fast and he's usually pretty accurate, he just doesn't want to waste time with the monotony of school. 

Micah wants to sit and take his time (usually) and he loves pouring over a maze or taking time to color a picture or making crafts etc. Since I am homeschooling both of them the major adjustment has been on my part. Trying to get myself organized enough to be able to devote adequate time to each.... It's been so fun to see them "get it" and understand a concept.

Anyway, we are a part of a homeschooling charter school and the boys met with their teachers yesterday and they are both the most wonderful ladies. The boys really love both of them, so we are in full swing. 

I am so blessed to be so fulfilled in getting to pour into my children and nurture them body, soul and spirit. Such a gift!
