Service & Big News
We had Entertaining Angels today and had 10 families. Because of Mother's Day weekend, I had forgotten to mail out reminder cards, so it was good to have people come in who were regulars. We also had 3 new families sign up today. They had all been referred by another family that had been serviced in the past. Nice! Tomorrow they have to work at the local food bank.
Big News!!!
Jordan has completed 8th grade!!!!! I have to grade her final report on John Calvin and then she is done! She has had such a great week and a half and worked very hard through the final stretch. Guess what that means.... I will have a High School student in the house.

Improvement
Today was oh so much better. Prayer and sleep are miracle workers around here.
I updated attendance and completed progress report cards today. 1st grade has about 5 weeks of work left. He is grinning towards the finish line. 8th grade is in the home stretch too. I cannot believe we are getting ready for high school next year. 4th grade is making progress and is in the 8th and 9th units of his 10 units lessons. Whew.
We are also making attitude adjustments that focus on living privileged lives versus basic lives. We are naming and claiming happiness, building relationships instead of walls and changing the desires of our hearts to line up better with His delight. I am pleased that the participants want to do better which makes it easier to support.
Library day tomorrow. We may have to take a bigger book bag as my kids tend to be big borrowers. ~Smile~

Re-Entry
Today is our first day back to school from a rather extended spring break and it was tough. We have had tears and weeping and Mamma praying out loud to get us on track. We had friends over yesterday after church and they stayed past bedtime so that has led to some of the sensitive feelings. We had a great time roasting marshmallows and eating s'mores, but the sugar high of last night caused a crash this morning. I predict an early bedtime tonight will make tomorrow much better.
