Wow, can't believe we're starting another year!! Excited and still waiting on the Lord to direct our paths...when it comes to education each year...so far.
It's been so long since I had a post...with going to school, an Nursing Home internship, and life--the blog fell by the way side...which was the sane thing to do when your priorities are in survival mode.
So, our smaller two boys are still going to attend Leon Valley Christian Academy, 1st and 2nd grade respectfully. The academy has been such a blessing to our family that I can't even begin to state the gratefulness we feel towards the school family, the Administrator- Mr. Dupree, and our Pastor. They have helped this family get through a really big trial this past year, and it's not over yet, but the Lord has blessed our family through the LVCA ministry.
I am praying for great things!! They are using the full curriculum with A beka.
At home for our older two boys, we have one in the 8th grade, one in the 11th.
