We are back in our house after 11 weeks!
Rooms have been rearranged as the event left us with an enlarged classroom and no master closet. The classroom needs a new floor and paint and the best built in desk pinterest can come up with. Until that is all done school is happening back at the kitchen table/living room and new reading room.
It was great living in a hotel, truly it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Just think about how much laundry you do every day that is towels or sheets with a family of eight-now don't do it! That part was amazing. However we are so grateful to be home and now we can all sit down in the same room not to mention we can all eat at the same table-huge, that is huge guys!
We are trying to buckle down with school and really get a strong idea of a daily flow...George is wanted and is eager to find some school day time and is crazy how much he already know or at least gets really lucky with the answers. There is so much I want to post about, we will see how much will happen. We plan to school eight weeks on and two weeks off and my hope is to do that year round so that we can learn and investigate other areas of interest that might not fit into a regular curriculum. High hopes...maybe too high.
Thank you everyone for you prayers, advice and support. We are not close to being finished with insurance, however we are not home at it feels so good...it's all gravy from here on.
Yay! I'm so glad you're back, but I'm sure it's also stressful trying to transition back! I love the picture... all the kids seem to work together as a team so well!
ReplyDeleteWhew! So thankful you are back; you have been missed!
ReplyDeleteWhat an experience you all have had and will be able to tell and write about as the years go by! So thankful that you had some breaks/blessedness during the ordeal. Now we'll pray the "loose" ends get put together soon.
I'm sure you have learned so much from this latest cross/opportunity! We are rejoicing with you that you are home and praying hard that the mess is finished soon. BTW, Mary Colette looks like she came straight out of "Little House on the Prairie".
ReplyDeleteSuch a relief to be in your own place again!! Welcome home.
