For Today
Sept 14 th
Outside my window...Cloudy and fall feeling.

I am thinking...of the Lord, and how He is in the midst of everything bad or good.

I am thankful for...good friends, and cooler weather.

From the learning rooms...Royalty, castles, knights, and heading into Egypt.

From the kitchen...Chili,chicken pot pie, a roast.

I am wearing... green pants and shirt.

I am creating...nothing, but hoping the Lord is creating a pure heart in me.


I am going...soccer,flagfootball, maybe the orchard.

I am reading.. One Year Bible, New Testament, Beth Moore bible study "Stepping Up a journey through the Psalms of Ascent." starting "The Hound of the Baskervilles'by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

I am hoping...we survive the trial we are in, i know we will but sometimes it get's a little hairy.

I am hearing...T.V.

Around the house..the usual lived in house.

One of my favorite things...babies, so cute.

A few plans for the rest of the week: soccer, maybe playground, flag football.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...Baby Jessie what a good baby, God knew I needed one.

First days of a the new school year

We started the school year officially Sept 1st. I was a little apprehensive about starting school at all with having 5 kids under 7, but the Lord is so faithful. So this year we are doing things a little different we start off the day with a New Testament daily devotion right out of the NIV One Year Bible. We are still doing the bible lessons that are in the Weaver Curriculum and also the social studies, science, and creative writing. I love the Weaver Curriculum it gives me many freedoms on books to use activities to do and so on. The first unit we are doing is Royalty,castles, and respect. We read "Queen Esther the Morning Star"by Mordicai Gerstien, a story about Esther in the bible in a nice kid form. The whole unit is about how even though kings,pharaohs and other important people have authority. God is the ultimate authority.


John is in 2nd grade and his work load is a little different this year. His language arts program consist of "Learning Language arts through Literature" (red book), Hooked on Phonics (2nd grade) and possibly "Easy Grammar" 2nd grade. He is also doing Horizons 2nd grade math, and "A Reason for Handwriting" book T. I told JJ he is going to keep practicing "kid" writing but by the end of the year we will try "fancy" adult writing. This is what he calls the two different writing styles. Funny!

Judah is doing this awesome book "Cuisnare Rods Alphabet book." Just love it so hands on for him. He seems to really enjoy it. He also started "Math U See" also really hands on for him. We are going to go through "Us borne book of Childrens Art" and "The Story of the Orchestra : Robert Levine.

Joey and Johannah just go with the flow of things listening to this doing that very low key. We are also doing soccer and flag football through the towns rec department. We may have some bumps in the road but I really enjoy homeschooling and am blessed that I can do it.

Our youngest Robinson boy Joey!

On July 15th 2006 Joseph Robert Robinson was born at PVH right here in Lincoln, Maine. He came in at 8 lbs 12 oz 21 1/2 inches long. He has been a blessing ever since. He keeps us on our toes and equally on our knees. He reminds me of my dad in so many ways even though he never met him they share the same birthday month and name. We love our very handsome and challenging Joe Joe. Happy 4th birthday buddy!

Jeska Ann Robinson is here!

Weighing in at 8 lbs 22 inches we were graced by the presence of Baby Jeska born on June 18th at 3:33 pm in Lincoln, Maine. Here she is a precious gift from the Lord, we are so blessed to have these children. Jeska is a name from the bible it is Haran's daughter, Lot's sister (Ischa) it means God beholds. This is the verse the Lord gave me for her, Isaiah 12:2 "Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation."
