I have also been so blessed that God has allowed me to be a stay at home mom right now. He provides for us in so many ways and He guides my path. I know one of those things I have wished I could've done with my older kids was to home school them. I had toyed with the idea but never followed through with it.

We all know how it is to be working really intently on a project only to get distracted by something or someone.

Today is another great and wonderful day! I want to keep the spirit of Thanksgiving alive in my heart and in the hearts of everyone around me. Sometimes it is so much easier to find things to complain about than to be thankful for what we have in front of us.
