1st grade
We are off to a pretty productive year now that I am healed from surgery! I am much more excited about this year now that we have successfully homeschooled for over a year now. My new favorite thing is Real Science 4 Kids - we got the Pre-Chemistry set.

It's a Bloggy Contest! Win Honey, I Don't Have a Headache Tonight!
Wednesday, June 03, 2009
Okay, ladies! It's time for another bloggy contest! I'm really excited about this one!
And I'm going to write the rest of this post sort of in the third person so it's easier for you to copy and paste it to your blog (as you'll see below). So if I start calling myself "Sheila", instead of "me", don't think I've gone loopy, okay?
Father's Day is coming up, and this year, why not get something that YOU read (or listen to), and HE reaps the rewards from?
If you want to stop your marriage from fizzling and start it sizzling, I've got the answer for you!
He says, "you’re never in the mood." She says, "That's all you ever think about!" It’s a conflict as old as time. We’re told "opposites attract", but given time and circumstance, what once lured you in, can quickly lure you out.
But you don't have to be stuck in this trap!
Sheila's book, Honey, I Don't Have a Headache Tonight: Help for women who want to feel more in the mood, can help you solve this impasse! It's fun, real, and extremely practical.
I love this book, and I know it can help your marriage.
I know, because Sheila, the author, didn't always have a great marriage. She's not "talking down" to you. She wrote it as a research project to help herself. And her husband says he definitely liked the research!
So often we find intimacy difficult because men and women ARE different. Women wonder why men were created with the switch always turned on, and men wonder why women were created with so many different switches and no instruction manual.
Honey, I Don't Have a Headache Tonight helps us bridge this gap by helping us to understand our husbands better, get more energy, heal past hurts, and increase romance & respect in our marriages! You'll also learn why understanding God's view of sexuality can actually make you more in the mood--even if that sounds strange!
Filled with practical advice, Honey I Don't Have a Headache Tonight tackles these issues:
How change in the sexual relationship requires change elsewhere.
Why sex for women is often a "head thing."
How television is the biggest enemy to intimacy.
Why forgiveness and letting go of the need to be right is so important.
How self-image issues and past hurts can throw intimacy into a tailspin.
The repercussions of everyday energy zappers.
The threats to Godly sexuality.
The roadblocks of respect.
The cultural attacks on gender.
And more! And best of all, it's fun to read!
It's Sheila's Father's Day special this month, along with a 45-minute hilarious and practical talk Sheila's given on the subject.

After months and months of trying to get baby girl involved in any sort of structured activity I finally found something she loves! Not only is she working on her fine motor skills - she is sorting, learning shapes and colors. She runs out every morning now asking to do her school work. I found different shaped beads and containers to match at the Dollar Tree. That way she can match the squares, circles, hearts, and stars. The best thing though is it keeps her occupied for a very long time - and she is so proud of herself!!

Frozen Ice Treasures
They were using spoons to uncover the hidden "prizes" in their frozen ice cubes. The day before we picked what colors to tint the water and I hid various things such as beads, coins, and marbles for them to excavate.
