Cold

It's cold here in the mid-Atlantic...with the possibility of snow and getting colder.  I guess that's because it is January!  :-)

I've taken a break from reading "Mornings on Horseback", a book about Teddy Roosevelt and am reading through my collection of Agatha Christie books.  Because I've read them many times, I can read them quite quickly...savoring my favorites and breezing through my less favorite ones.  Next on my stack is "A Murder is Announced".

We are through all of the holiday festivities and settling back into our school routines.  Co-op started again this week.  I'm teaching a class for elementary students.  We are watching "The Wild Brothers" DVDs and discussing them.  So far, so good.  Autumn is continuing Biology and has a dissection lab as well.  Janae is continuing Physical Science & Sign Language.  She also has a class on the Iditarod.  Zach is learning about Current Events, the Iditarod, and Missions & Evangelism.  Mark & Micah are together for their classes this semester:  The Wild Brothers (Science/Bible), Nature's Canvas (Art - Painting Rocks), and Winter Phys. Ed.  John Haydyn enjoys the nursery.

This morning JH's speech therapist is coming.  This week we also started Mark with a couple of tutors.  He will be seeing one lady every other week and another one weekly in addition to his bi-weekly OT and ST.

Well, the kids will soon be stirring so I'd better wrap this up.

May you have moments of joy throughout your day today!

2019

Not much to say today...but it's the first day of another year.  Yesterday I had an old Alabama song running through my head...the line "New Year's Eve, 1999".  :-)  Seems like a lifetime ago!

I don't know what this year will bring...hopefully more frequent blogging!

Happy New Year!
