I Have Been Awarded

Cathy at From The Field of Blue Children was kind enough to acknowledge me with a blog award. Cathy is a magnificent blogger and an all around special gal.

I just realized that Marie at View from the Pews has also given me this award. Marie is a sweetheart who writes what she believes and believes what she writes. I admire that.

This award acknowledges the values that every blogger shows in his/her effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary and personal values every day.

The rules to follow are :
1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person that has granted the award and his or her blog link.
2) Pass the award to other 15 blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment. Remember to contact each of them to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

I want to pass this award along to the blogs that have become places where I can receive encouragement, enlightenment, entertainment, and have a good read.

The award goes to…

Little Flowers

Yesterday we had our first Little Flowers meeting. The boys who are in our homeschool group go with their dad’s to Conquest. Our girls were feeling a little left out. We came to the decision that a Little Flowers group would be a great idea.

The mom who has the Little Flower craft book could not make it to the first meeting, so we gave the girls creative freedom with the craft supplies and us moms sat back, talked and enjoyed our chips and salsa.

We had mom time while the kids got crafty, ate cupcakes and played. We will be doing a more formal Little Flower group, but it was nice to just have everyone together too.

Before I began homeschooling I was worried about my children having friends, being alone, and socialization. Now that I am homeschooling I have to laugh at myself when I think back on those thoughts. My kids have more friends now then they ever did in traditional school. And these friends are actually apart of their home life.

Another plus is that the mother’s of these friends have become my close friends. I couldn’t be happier with how everything is working out for my kids, and for myself. It is wonderful how God brings people together.
