We are into our 8th unit now and am glad we are almost done. Woohoo! I have to say that I do not think it has been bad as long as I keep up on the homework and spend time writing and modifying as much as I can.
It definitely makes for an easier week and more relaxed, so when I sit down and look at my paper I can spend time re-writing anything I need to do and think about what I am doing.
It has been very busy for the whole family. It seems I am coming and going so much lately between working, basketball games twice a week, and trying to fit in grocery shopping, and Christmas shopping.
My husband and I picked up a local family, who we do not know, who will be having a hard time for Christmas this year. It is a single father of three young girls, ages 12, 7, and 6. He has asked for help with household items, cleaning supplies, and some Christmas items for his girls. Today, I went out shopping for this family. I can remember a time when my husband and I did not know what we were going to do for our 4 kids for Christmas. We were so broke we didn't even have food in the refrigerator. It was very scary and hope we never have to go through that again. I have to say, if it wasn't for us experiencing this and the our church family helping us with gifts and food and gas cards we would have never experienced the real meaning of Christmas. There are people in the world who do care for the health and well-being of others. There still is compassion and love in this world. I hope those that need help are really helped this year. Merry Christmas!
