The year came and passed, quicker than Savannah's short visit into our lives. I have a hard time believing it has really been that long. That four seasons have changed since we last saw her pretty face. But though it seems like yesterday, our days are not as centered around the missing piece to our family puzzle, and I know that Fraser life has continued in its very own, forward motion.
For almost a month now, all three of the kids have been working their little brains learning; growing; thriving. As I've mentioned before, we are homeschooling this year. There was a lot of talking, discussing, and praying that went into this decision. But ultimately, Koady and I both felt it was right, and that we were called to do it. So far I would say, three weeks into it, I myself, am still trying to get into the swing of things. With adding "teacher" to my ever growing titles, I wonder to myself, where time to breathe might appear. As I see each of my friends drying teary eyes, and tucking lunches into character decorated backpacks, I can't help but question my sanity. Maybe it is because I yet to know personally, other mothers who have taken the full fledged dive into homeschooling. But despite those moments of "what ever was I thinking," I still feel that the decision to educate my children is best for our family.
I am hoping to start including our school time into my "life unfolding," but we will save that for a time where I am feeling a teensy weensy bit more organized. Which is not right now, considering the clock is ticking closer and closer to 10pm as we speak...
Which if you think I am one
A Story Unfolding will be undergoing some changes in the near future... As we move forward.
Thank you all for continuing on this journey with us.

I'm with all the way as you move forward. =)
Personally, I love, love, love that you are homeschooling. I am praying that if it is what we are to do, then God will put it strongly on our hearts. I feel the call, but John, not so much =( We still have 2 years before official kindergarten so maybe he'll come around by then!
How exciting, I want to homeschool but still a little nervous about the whole thing!! Good luck :)
I know that mine is just in pre-school, but I can't imagine not homeschooling right now :) It seems to be a good fit for my family right now. At times it does seem totally overwhelming, but if we seek God first, then he will help us educate our kids...whether it be at home or through public education. If He is the lead, we can't go wrong! Deep breathe and move forward! Hugs!!!
