1) Well, we have almost accomplished our first week of self quarantine. Schools closed last week for an at least a 2 week duration but for our grands, I believe that was amended for an additional amount of time.. Who really knows when the schools will be operational again. So families everywhere are homeschooling.
I sort of wish our girls were homeschooled all the time!
2) When our oldest who is in kindergarten was asked to come up with her idea of a proper school day schedule .. hers looked a lot like what I suggested.
Mine
her's
3) I love how the girls are becoming much more engaging with each other .. a 6 and a 4 year old.
4) I am missing going to church already.. We have such fabulous activities at church... and I love the church family so much! Pastor is working extra hard to make online teachings available, as well as, his teachings he has for his Liberty students.
We are all praying for all of those impacted by this coronavirus and there are so many... May God have mercy on all those in harm's way, in dire financial circumstances, and that resources arrive on time for every need. In Jesus name!!
5) Meanwhile, I hope that this first weekend of spring will be so amazing that folks can get out in their yards and enjoy the beauty of our world and spend some time praising God for His goodness and His marvelous creation!
Lovely to see the girls sitting and learning! What a blessing kids are.
ReplyDeleteGlad you pastor is making online available for you! How nice!
Here we are living in the same way...Praying and praying and praying...Your kids are just adorable!Hugs!
ReplyDeleteSo your granddaughters live,with,you? Or are you just homeschooling so their parents can work?
ReplyDeleteI'm creating lesson plans and taking online NYS OCFS ( office of children and family services) free courses so i can continue to get my teache pay. Our schools are closed until at least March 31 ( private preK special ed agency) butmthe public schools are closed at least until 4/19 up here!
Our church has online services all the time livestreamed from the 9 and 11 a.m. Sunday services so for awhile our pastor and production team will only be going in on Saturday evenings ( but no church at 5 like usual) to pre record the worship and sermon. I'm thankful for technology!
It is very spring like here in eastern upstate NY yay!!!!
Have a safe and healthy weekend!
Such a lovely photos of the girls. We homeschool all the way through and our son graduated when he was 16. I wouldn't of changed a thing, smiles. Have a beautiful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe girls are precious! I homeschooled for 2 years when my girls were growing up. It was some of the best times for me because we got to spend so much time together swimming and traveling... I loved it. I'm glad your family is doing well.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog for the first time today and I really like it. I found Fave Five a few weeks ago and joined in. It has been a blessing all on its own. The list in crayon is so cute. What a blessing to be able to spend so much time with the grands. I have had that blessing for the past 15 years.
ReplyDeleteI hope you won't mind please delete my comment if you do but I know not everyone has a church that can post their services on line. If you are missing church the one I go to is on line in archive, and live through out the week. Sunday-mornings and evening. Wed.-evening. Thurs.- morning and we have Spanish services too. https://rock.church/live/ I miss the fellowship but at least I get the word.
You granddaughters are so cute. Love the list done in their own writing. Good to see that they are taking well to the homeschooling. Our school here are out indefinitely. Our church is doing online service tomorrow too and I know I will miss actually being there.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to be able to have your granddaughters with you. We are being advised to stay away from ours which is really hard. Our schools are closed indefinitely but are open to children of key workers. This only starts tomorrow so I think there will be some rationalisation done once they have a clearer picture of how many kids need to be looked after.
ReplyDeleteI'm so thankful for the resources available to work, learn, and connect with church members at home. I pray as well for God's mercy and provision, and especially His using these circumstances to turn people's hearts to Himself.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet that the sisters are doing things together.
ReplyDeleteOur church has been very pro active about finding ways to connect via You tube for services and via Zoom for smaller group meetings. Our pastor has also reminded us to reach out to friends and neighbors.
Stay safe and well!
