We started Tapestry of Grace before the holidays and are enjoying it very much. We're studying the 20th Century and are working through World War II right now. I like the way that once we start an area, the girls can just go with the subject on their own. They do their maps, timelines, lapbooks and notebook pages with a small amount of imput from me. This was a good thing since I spent the holidays very ill. In early Jan, I finally got a diagnosis and am getting better every day. I don't enjoy homeschooling while sick, but I'm amazed at what I learn when I am low and weak.
Now that I'm stronger, we've been organizing, cleaning and trying to get more done each day. What a blessing to see things become neater and cleaner each day. Sometimes I forget how much I like cleanliness!
I'm reading Created to be His Helpmeet again...whew...hard reading! I'm also reading some organization books and biographies from World War II.
