MAKING YOUR HOME SING MONDAY

I am linking up with my friend, Mom's The Word to participate in her Monday meme, "Making Your Home Sing Monday." It's a day when we share what we are doing to bless our families in our home. If you would like to join in, click here.

Today is officially our last day of summer vacation!! We are starting our new school year tomorrow and I have to say that I'm a tad bit excited!!

Last week I met up with a few homeschooling mom's and I was so encouraged when I left! I have brand new ideas to motivate my kids (mainly the older ones) to do their schoolwork, and also a better way to organize our time!

I know it's a holiday today, but I'm going to get ready for our first day of school! Did I mention I'm somewhat of a procrastinator? Well, I love the challenge! I'm hoping my husband takes the kids somewhere so I can have the house to myself!

So, I will be Making My Home Sing this week by being consistent with our routines and our schedule!!!

Have a blessed day, friends!

Have a great first day tomorrow! Good for you for getting organized today. It always makes tomorrow go smoother.

We just finished our first week and it went very well. Of course, I am down to one kid now, so it's much simpler than it used to be, not as much to coordinate.
