Are awesome!!! I love being a mom to teenagers. Yes, it is challenging some days but it keeps you young. I love watching them develop their own likes and dislikes (well mostly). I also learn from them and enjoy many of the things they enjoy. Here is an artist my daughter introduced me to and I just love his music.
Thanks Morgan!

End of school in sight
As we come to the end of another school year I always ponder things; how can we improve, what worked and what didn't. I am pretty happy overall with the way the year has gone. I always wish that I had accomplished more. I guess this is a good attitude and always keeps me striving for higher goals. The older kids are all finished with the outside classes and I have to say that it went very well. I am blessed to have such resources available to me.
Morgan took her ACT for the first time and scored high enough to get into the colleges she is looking at. We were so proud of her. She will take it again and try to improve her score a bit more. She is only one point away from being eligible for the presidential scholarship at a private Christian college she is interested in. She is only a junior so she has time.
We also just finished out ITBS for the next 3 and we are glad to put it in the mail. Jonathan does not have to be tested yet. But he is doing so well with his reading and math skills. He is reading new books everyday. He still has the wiggles most of the time but I see him starting to settle down some.
We are preparing our home for an exchange student from Korea. We are so excited for him to come. The program is called English n America. He will be with us all summer.
So now we start to pack up all of the work we have completed and pull out the new stuff. I love new books and new topics. This is such a fun time of year!
