Back to the Norm

It is the start of the second wk of Christmas break, the hullabulloo is over and the tree is down, decorations put away and the house back to the norm, except that it looks like toys r us in here!! We were so blessed this year, my boys have such a community if loving family and people around us all year through and Christmas being extra special for them!! By sunday we had been to 7 family dinners in 1 week!!! No wonder I am so exhausted!! The boys are troopers, through it all they have managed to not melt down!! At least this week is a take it easy week, not much on the calender and Steve still off for his break from classes, lots of relaxing, family time and movies at home! I love us all being home together for so long, this month I made a decision to homeschool my children next year and after this week of everyone home on break, I wish we were doing it now! I dread Jack going back to school next tues :(. I am so excited about the new venture of homeschooling, this summer will be so much more layed back without the dreaded deadline of school starting the first of Aug, I think after Labor day will work for us:) Call me crazy, but the good Lord has layed it heavy on my heart that this is what I am to do, and I am up for the challenge, God willing!!
