April 1st, today marks 3 years since my grandmother went to be with the Lord. It seems like just yesterday. I know she would have loved to see her little namesake Lillee-Anna Grace but I know some day we will all be sitting at the throne of God singing His praises. She was an amazing women who had a heart of gold and she is truly missed by us all. Not a day goes by that her absence isn't felt in our family.
The month of March seemed to fly by and here we are in April! Jahvar only has a month left of school, he graduates Head Start on May 6th. This is big for me because that means he will be going into Kindergarten next year and I won't be able to go to school with him anymore. He will be fine but I will be a mess. It seems so unnatural to me to leave my small child in the care of an absolute stranger who also has to look after about 20 other kids. The more I think about it the more I am thinking about home schooling. I know there are pros and cons to both home schooling and public schooling I just need to sit down weigh out my options and pray about it. I don't want to make a decision based on my fears of what could happen.
This week was full of doctors and dentist appointments for the kids and I. I am a teeth brushing fanatic and I still needed fillings. I got 5 last week and have to go back next week to get a few more. I couldn't believe it. They didn't fill one on enough after drilling so after a few days of pain I had to go back so they could fix it and so far its been fine. I think tooth pain may be the worse pain of all.
This weekend we have our girls and Owen's granddaughter Inez. So its a FULL house right now and our trip to New York should be interesting Sunday. Speaking of which, I have been covering the Children's Church in New Rochelle and need to put something together for this week just in case I am needed again.
Homeschooling from a desire to be with your child, is not fear. If you don't want him gone for that long during the day then keep him home another year and try it out, he can always start the next year! In CT you don't even have to make a decision until he is 7 years old!
