How is everything going? Trick question? 'Everything' encompasses quite a lot! Let's find out. First, let us break 'Everything' down into subtopics. To do this, let's use what an associate of our family calls the five F's, they are Faith, Family, Finances, Fitness, and Friends.
By Faith we live. Our eldest daughter rededicated her life to God this past Sunday! That is exciting news for a 14 yr old to make that decision, we all know, she could be deciding to choose plenty of other things to dedicate herself to. Our family went and heard T.D,Jakes speak on Feb 25 and he was nothing least than anointed as if I needed to tell you that. Thus being the title of this post, we'll get back to that.
Our Family has repositioned ourselves in many facets. Nate has a new schedule that allows for more family time and he turned a year older! I too will be a year older next month, 34 to be exact! Together we have unofficially launched into marriage ministry. Natrice is going well in HS. By well I mean she brought home three C's. When told that will not do and the whole drill she quickly retaliated with. "But they are Honors classes and therefore, my grades are actually higher according to the Board of Ed credential system". Now you know...We, Nate & I, are the Board around here! As stated before, that is NOT going to fly!! On a lighter note, God blessed her with the opportunity to get in on ground level of Lifeguard training! She is officially and Jr Lifeguard Apprentice! Natalie has been accepted as an nominee for the Jr National Young Leaders Conference! We will be selling soul food dinners to raise the $2500 needed for the trip.
And yes, we will gladly accept your donation! Natia has met her goal of completing 4 & 5th grade in one year while maintaining a B average.
As far as Finances, Nate got a nice raise AND bonus based upon merit. Well done, Babe! He in turn gave me a raise in my allowance! The girls are also reaping some of that reward. Not to mention that apprenticeship of Natrice, they are giving her a nice strip end! Look at God! HE loves a cheerful giver and we cheerfully give!
Let's see, Fitness right? Right! Well, the girls all swim three day a week. I have joined the park district to take advantage of the fitness room while they are in the pool and Nate is one his bike a few times a week for an hour and he walks quite often.
Lastly, our Friends. I tell you what, to make sure the information is correct, you tell me, How're Ya do'in?!
Reposition yourself

- What's with the Blog?
- Come on in and take a look around. We are first time Homeschoolers serving the God that is The Great I AM. As followers of Christ, we are encouraged to have the best school year possible. We brought two of our three daughters home to educate them. We are not against public education, hence our eldest attends a public High School, while prepping for college. We are simply doing what is best for our family & future in this season of our lives. Many pepole have different feelings regarding homeschooling and all of them are validated, afterall, they are YOUR beliefs. So, with that being said, make yourself comfortable and take a look around. If you need to leave just remember, Y'all come back now, ya hear!
