BACK TO THE GRIND!!!!!

We are back to the ol' grind and I love it. The routine is great for us. At least it makes me feel like we are accomplishing so much. I loved the rest and relaxation we got over the Christmas break but I was ready for our world to start moving again. Of course, that being said the prayer on my lips the last few nights has been "Lord, give us restorative sleep." Sometimes I sleep and don't feel like I was in that bed for long.

Jacqulin is back to violin, Luke is back to band practice and of course homework is upon us again. Jacqulin told me last night that she has decided to plead with her teacher for less homework. She told the teacher that her Mom isn't giving her much help these days. I don't know if that is really what she said or if she's just jerking my chain. She's 9 going on 18 so I guess I should get used to it. She said her teacher still gave her a lot of homework. Hee!! Hee!
