I am disappointed in my lack of content over the past week and a half. But, can I be honest with you? I just haven't been feeling well. And it hasn't been any particular physical ailment, but more of an emotional one. I just get this way sometimes. I think we all do, though some more than others.
It's hard to be on top of your game as a homeschool mom when you just feel "blah". The kids ask, "What's wrong, Mommy?" and I don't have an answer for them. And I feel bad for them because they are stuck with a party-pooper for a mom when I get this way. It's hard on them, not only because they want me to be fun and interact more with them, but I know that they worry sometimes, and probably even blame themselves a little.
So I try to put on a smile and do my best to be sweet. It helps that the sun has come out and the temperatures have been warmer the past few days. I think some extra Vitamin D and lots of fresh air may be just what the doctor ordered. I plan to take advantage of some of that tomorrow, as it is supposed to be 70* here and sunny. Plus, the kids are going to their grandparents for a few hours, so I can soak it up in peace and quiet.
Peace and love,

Prayers for you! I understand, it comes and goes around here too, especially in the latter part of wintertime. The warmer days and sunshine are always what I need to help me out. God has surely blessed us this week hasn't He?
Awww!
Beverly,
I tell you what. It's the time of year. I know so many homeschool moms who are going through this right now. ESPECIALLY ME! We're in the home stretch, but not really.
The only thing that helps me is our homeschool convention. In May. I've already started packing. :)
Hang in there.
