On August 11, Lydia made her debut in the new adventures of 2ND grade. Every time I think about this it makes me very sad. She is an amazing little girl (although she would say that she is not little)and I am so proud of her. She is so smart and it is some what strange to see her mature into a big girl. She is reading fluently and will begin to learn how to write in cursive this year. She has a huge heart and is always willing to do and give to others. We are always trying to instill in each of our kids to put others first even when it is not easy. She absolutely loves her school and we are so thankful that she can go there. She goes on Tuesday and Thursday and we home school on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Many people have a hard time understanding why we do this, so to put it simply this is a choice that we have made and we can only hope that others with respect our decision. We feel that a majority of your learning in life happens outside of the classroom and at the end of the day whether you go to a christian private school, a public school, or home school you are going to end up being who God wants you to be no matter where or how you were educated. Our desire for our children is for them to love Jesus and to treat others the ways that we think would make Jesus smile.
