1 More Sleep ... {Homeschool Mother's Journal}


Family Photo's in the backyard!

 In my life this week…
  • Loved reading the updates on Munchkin Missions.  If you are looking for a missions family to support I highly recommend this family.  This lady is from our church as recently got married.  Due to some events they have also adopted twins and are in need of funding.  
  • Lots of preparation work in anticipation of our 4x4 adventure with my Dad and brother which begins tomorrow.

Helpful homeschooling tips or advice to share…

My favourite thing this week was…
  • Last year some time I discovered the #pinkninja on Instagram and have been following Addie's journey ever since.  This week her Dad and Mum share a little of their personal story over the last year.  Her Dad's story/perspective is so inspirational and breathtakingly honest I highly recommend you take some time to read it.
  • I loved watching WAR ROOM and so did Nathaniel.  In fact he has asked to see it again.  Here are some resources available War Room Resources

A Difficult Week ... {HSMJ}


 In my life this week…
  • It's been an extremely intense week this week.  My daughter ran into some difficulties while traveling abroad.  Please pray with me as I would love for the Lord to open a door for me to go over and see her ...
  • Two friends sons are in need of your prayers for some serious life happenings today.  If you pray please intercede for young man A and young man B.  Their families have asked for prayer but would like to remain anonymous.

In our home school this week…
  • We started back in but had to pause in order to deal with a major family emergency so we learned about flexibility and working through a crisis.
