Ella Mae


Yes she is 7 going on 8, but it often feels like 18. She wants to be so grown-up and since she is the oldest it is hard to remember that she is only 7! She still draws a hundred pictures a week (which amazingly disappear in the recycling bin) and she writes lots of stories. But she would say her favorite subject is Science because she loves science experiments. We have a kind lady from church who comes over every week and teaches her a sewing lesson. It is such a blessing to me and so fun for her.

Annalee Joy


She loves her new glasses. She has become a great reader and will be our child who probably hides a flashlight in her bed so she can read all night. Her favorite subject she says is "Math". I think it's because I let her have a recess after it. It is fun to have her and Ella learning together at home. Today she asked if she could wear her uniform (from Kindergarten). She has started to draw a lot and write "stories". She is my best babysitter and always loves to play with Adam.

Georgia Grace


Her name fits her so well. She is so fun. Always laughing and making others laugh. She is in pre-school and loving it. She tells the other girls she gets to go to "real school". I guess she doesn't think homeschool is real school. She loves going to Cubbies. Her favorite song is "Jesus Loves Me" which she asks Phil to sing every night at devotions. Her favorite past-time is annoying her brother and making him scream, for some reason she finds much excitement in this even though she doesn't like the consequences she receives from it.

Adam Timothy


Yes, 730 days have passed since his arrival into our lives!! It has gone so fast, and has been so fun. He is loving his trains and cars. Which Phil is really glad that he has some "boy toys". He is fun to be around, but he is also 2 which = lots of work! He loves helping in the kitchen and often pushes the stool over to the blender (for a smoothie) or the mixer and points at it which basically means lets make cookies!
