Down the Road

What a busy life!  You would think that a homeschool Mom would have a quiet, peaceful life...unless of course you are a homeschool Mom!  If you are, you know better!

Last week we had 2 days where my husband was in Chicago.  He got home Thursday and we left Friday afternoon headed to Jackson, TN.  We went to see Lee University's Campus Choir in concert.  They were awesome!  We spent the night in Jackson with our JBQ (Junior Bible Quiz) team and were up early Saturday morning for a long day of quizzing.

This was the last sectional quiz meet of the year.  We will head to districts on March 20.  We had our awards ceremony for the section Saturday afternoon.  Our team came in FIRST!  All 4 of our quizzers were in the top 10.  Josh, my oldest son, came in FIRST in individual points.  He even beat the Advanced league.  I am so proud of him.  He has worked so hard!  The thing that I am most proud of is the Word of God that they have placed in their hearts.  I know it will follow them throughout their lives.

Tonight I am packing to go see my Grandmother tomorrow.  It will be about a 5.5 hour drive.  She now has a blood clot in her leg where they did the hip/leg surgery.  She also now has pneumonia.  I know that she won't be with us much longer but it's ok.  I know where she is going. 

I won't be posting while I am gone.  Hopefully life will get back to normal soon and we can talk about coupons and saving money again.  In the meantime, things of much greater importance have my undivided attention.
