Whew! November is flying by! It's almost Holiday time!

Hello everyone,

Just popping in to catch up here this month!

It's been a busy month!  My son is wrapping up his high school football season.  The Varsity football team lost in the game to reach the playoffs so their season is officially over.  They do have a Thanksgiving Eve game though, I think I'll be missing that one!  He also has one more Junior Varsity game so that's exciting! 

On the daughter front it's been a REAL challenge.  She's 10 and thinks she's the boss.  We're nipping that right in the bud, any tips for the challenging tween phase will be GREATLY appreciated.   My standard study verse is Colossians 3:21: Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest they be discouraged. I do realize she's going through a lot of changes so I'm TRYING to be patient. 

On a good note, my daughter made the honor roll for the 9th straight marking period.  This was a challenge because adjusting to 5th grade was tough! She's in a very demanding class and has a lot more homework than last year.  My son is also doing well and is happy this is his last year of high school math!!  He's looking at colleges and preparing to take the SAT's.  And just today he got his permit (But don't tell his friends! LOL! )! Yaay!

As for the blog.  This week will be catch up week.  I have lots of offers to tell you about as well as some sponsored posts and giveaways!  Stay tuned and have a BLESSED week!

Love and Blessings!

  1. Ah, how well I remember those years with our 4 daughters. Just think, after tween comes teen! It'll be fine! Try your best to see the humor in it all and spend a bunch of time on your knees--BUT don't ask Him for patience because He WILL test you! Or, that's what He did to me! LOL Hang in there!
