What happened to February??? Somehow now it's March and I wrote two posts in February! That's really sad! As the saying goes "Time Flies faster every year" is SO true! Our family's life right now is SO busy - I know that I'm going to look back someday and wonder how we did it all!
Homeschooling all by itself is a full time job!!! Especially when they started junior high and even more in high school! Brandon is a freshman in high school, Brittany is in junior high, and Brooke in in 5th grade. Their work load is much heavier than when they were little!
Then add the difficulties of learning challenges - dyslexia, auditory processing, and some ADD issues- for my high schooler and junior higher on top of that job!!
Then add on top of that all three of them playing basketball, with Brandon having everyday intense practices.
Add on top of that Norquist dance everyweek.
And on top of that, Awana everyweek.
Add the girls in ballet, drama, piano, and guitar. Brandon in drama, guitar, coaching the girls basketball, and refing basketball.
Then I have the basic duties of being a mom - cooking, shopping, laundry, cleaning, landscaping, mail, bills, and coordinating our family's schedule!
And last, I teach two classes for our homeschool campus day, and I do all the bookkeeping for our Details of Sonoma construction business.
Take a deep breath - no wonder the time flies!!! And to top it off the month the 2010 Winter Olympics have been on. I love the Olympics and have been glued to watching them every night - no wonder I didn't write any other posts in February!!
We ended our busy February with our annual trip to the snow! We love going to Tahoe in the snow! Usually we go skiing but the last few years we haven't been able to spend the money so we have a great time playing in the snow - sledding, snowball fights, snowmans, and iceys!! This February was a fun but crazy month - and I think March is going to fly by even faster- already it took me three days to finish this post :) !! But the good news is that in our craziness, I'm trying to be really good about taking pictures to document our busy lives and to show how fast everyone is growing up. I got some great family pictures in the snow as I set the self-timer and ran!!
