Today went great!

I was surprised considering we didn't do a ton for school last week, today went really well! We actually did a lot. In fact, for the week all we have left to do is a few chapters in our read aloud and our geography. That's it! So here it is Monday & we're almost done with this week. That worked out great!!

We did all of our science today. I have to admit, we didn't do the experiments. I know I should. BUT, they just seemed so obvious. And, I haven't mentioned I felt terrible today (body aches & runny nose kind of thing) - the last thing I wanted to do was go out in the rain to do projects. And since my son wasn't really too excited about doing them either, I was more than ok skipping them. He is really digging learning about the different animals though, which is cool.

Oh I have to mention how awesome our God is! This is just amazing. So, we are reading about Cameron Townsend (who started Wycliff ministries) and we are learning about Cuba this week in our Windows Of World book. Well, for over a year now I have been receiving a newsletter & email alerts from a ministry that smuggles bibles into countries. I found them through a homeschool convention once & since then I have kept them in prayer as they go on their missions. I have googled them & they are not online. I don't want to mention their name (not that this site gets a whole lot of hits, but they obviously are trying to keep anonymous.) ANYWAY, the point of me mentioning them is two reasons. First, they did an article of a pioneer in their ministry who recently died and he was a big part of the Wycliff ministry and even had met (and worked with) Cameron Townsend! This man said he highly admired and respected him. So, they are dedicating the mission that they are on right now to this man who just recently passed. AND, where are they currently at? CUBA!! Isn't that amazing?!? God just tied all of our studies together for this week!! I read the newsletter to my son & we both praised God for His awesome ways of doing things so personally.

If you are interested in the name of the ministry, just contact me via email & I'll send you the info.

That was the highlight of our school day today.
Can't wait to see what's in store for tomorrow!

Have a wonderful day in My Fathers World. :-)
