Philip is by far the more fun parent ; ) |
August-September brought a whirlwind of activity, as I know it does for most families.
- We have officially started "school". We meet once a week with other homeschooling families to learn in a more structured classroom setting, while learning at home the rest of the week. Thus far I am very pleased with the routine and the lovely families we have met. Of course so much of our progress (or lack thereof) depends on my keeping everyone on schedule. So, I have really come to appreciate that "list-making gene" I inherited from my mother!
Soccer
- Kylie has begun her first season of soccer! I don't know how good she is yet, but she is DARN cute in those shin guards and tall socks! ; ) Her team consists of 9 little girls called the Butterflies, and they sport turquoise jerseys with matching tie-dyed socks!

The Savior
- Philip has gone and returned from 6 weeks of filming THE SAVIOR in Bulgaria and Jordan. There is a certain boisterous joy missing in the house when he's not here, so we're glad to get him back! This film is the long-awaited capstone to a project he has put ten years of his life into. I am so proud of his work and the many lives it is touching. I was able to join him for one week in Bulgaria, so here are a few of the pictures I took.
