Did you know the fez in Moroccan is called, "tarboosh"? :)
Is it only Wednesday? Really?!? I am wiped out! It's been a hard week though, I have been fighting something, and of course there's no time for rest when you're the teacher!
We've been having a good week, other than my sluggishness. Kenzie has (in 11 days, mind you) memorized her entire list of 53 prepositions! Now she can move forward in the book! It turned out to be much easier than I thought it was going to be. I was pretty intimidated! She is excited and looking forward to the lessons. Hopefully Easy Grammar Curriculum will be as enjoyable for my girls as some say it is! I just hope I can teach it! :s
We've been studying Morocco this week. Including the Berber people and more about the Sahara Desert. The girls are really enjoying it, and I love that they are learning and doing so many interesting things! We are also going to study "nomads" this week, and look at scripture that talks about Abraham being a nomad at one time!
I am also putting together a unit study on nutrition. This is going to be a lot of fun! (And hopefully beneficial to my waistline at the same time.) I will share more on that later I am sure!
On a more personal note, I am really praying that I learn to balance things a little better. So much of my time is consumed with "school", that I feel somethings are falling by the wayside. I know that's to be expected, but if you know anything about my O.C.D tendencies, you know that this can depress me! I need energy to keep going after school, and get more done! But I also know that I am learning balance in all this. Please keep me in your prayers! That I can continue on this path with a happy heart! I am completely willing to be stretched and taught my potential by my Lord, I look forward to the blessings of living for Him everyday. I just need a little more energy. ;)
