Still Here!

Gee...I guess I haven't been in a very bloggy mood lately. Oops. We've been busy with several appointments this month as well as our homeschool co-op and all of our regular responsibilities. I have been reading up on how to teach my girl according to her learning style, which definitely does not match my own. Jason and I are always praying that God would show us how to meet her needs. It's really hard, but very exciting as well. He's growing us!

In other news, Rachel and Betsie both have cute new haricuts. To save our relationship, Rachel and I both agreed that she needs short hair so that I don't have to get the tangles out for her. Actually, she was somewhat cooperative, but hated every minute of the detangling process. I think she looks great with this new style! We're going to let her bangs grow out, but keep it all chin length and let her wear some cool clips to keep it out of her eyes. With Betsie, we just had to shape it up. Mary Evelyn wants long hair, and since she soesn't mind me brushing her hair or styling it, she gets to keep long hair!

Jason is busy with work as usual, but he is able to work at home more now. We've set up a little home office for him in the corner of our bedroom so that he doesn't have to be gone as much. While I miss the chair that used to occupy that corner, I'd rather see my husband than any chair!

Next week we have a week off from school but I plan to read a lot to the girls. I think this will be our first break this year that we won't be gone somewhere. Hopefully, I'll get a lot done!

Here's the new haircuts:

Rachel is getting so big! Sigh...



I don't know how to get good pictures of Betsie with that black hair. (This is still new for me...I'm used to light skin and redheads!) She looks adoreable though! Take my word for it! And it's a bonus that she likes getting her haircut...no tears and all smiles!

You've been in my frequent thoughts and prayers, friend.

Your girls are just adorable in their new do's! Glad to hear that Jason is able to work from home more regularly. What a sweet blessing for all of you!

Have a wonderful new week!

Very cute hair cuts Jen! What book are you are reading about learning styles? I need to find a title on this very subject.

I hope your week off next week is a wonderful time for you guys!
