Well we had our first day of school yesterday. It went really well! My daughter, Amanda, started teaching youngest daughter, Cathryn, piano lessons today and she is doing really well! I have been doing a family devotion with children in the morning. We wake up at 6:00 a.m., they get all chores done, read Bible on their own, eat breakfast, and then we do our Bible study together. We each pray and then Do a page out of Spurgeon's devotion book Morning and Evening. We also learn about one hymn, like who wrote it and the background of the person, then we are going to sing it. We will learn 1 hymn a week, and we also learn one verse of scripture a week. Our 1st memory verse is Matthew 6:33. Then we are ready to start school by around 7-7:30. That is pretty much our schedule for school.
My prayer is that I will be a patient teacher with my children and that they will have a love and joyful attitude in learning each day. I thank the Lord that Amanda is assisting me in teaching this year. She is teaching Andrew, Geometry and doing some English projects with him. I am so glad she is learning to be a stay at home daughter and Keeper of the Home. I hope you have a blessed day!
