To build a family is to change a generation

What does that mean exactly? Have you ever watched some one build a house? The more time, detail and love the builder puts into the home, the more it can with stand. When he just hastily slops some walls up, slaps some shingles on, the more likely it is going to fall apart.

The more time, detail and love you put into a family the longer it will stand and change the way your children view family and life.

It is complete!

Ahhhh, I can now breathe, well for a minute anyways. My two school projects are complete, my lesson plans and report card. This afternoon was productive and my lesson plans for the next nine weeks are complete. It was a weight, a daunting task, that takes time, but it is some thing that must get done.  Was it really, painful and daunting? No, in fact, once you do it a couple of times you get in a rhythm and it is not.  Time, consuming, yes, but once it is done, you are finished. Actually, I even had an enjoyable conversation with my Husband while filling out the next nine weeks.  I find it is much easier to do the nine week quarter thing rather than an every week or every semester.  It is just one less thing to do during my week. I find that filling out a whole semester at time, makes my lesson book look messier because of all the changes I make or when life throws in a curve ball and adjustments are required.
Yesterday I completed the report card.  Which I have tried to make as painless as possible by, tailing grades at the end of each week and not at the end of nine weeks.  It is better to take mouse size bites than an elephant bite.  9 numbers for one subject seems much more palatable than 45 numbers per subject.  So all and all life its good and God is amazing.
