I'm sooooooo excited!!!!

It came, it finally came! Caleb's school books arrived today! I'm branching out and trying something new with him this year. I am a die hard Abeka fan, but with our crazy schedule I was worried about getting everything done with Caleb this year. I had heard about Sonlight before, seen it at conventions, talked with people who had used it, read websites, etc... Well, I went for it and ordered EVERYTHING. It seems like a lot, but when it is put all together it is so exciting! I think what I love the most about it is the organization. Everything is separated and outlined and planned! No running to the store at the last minute for a pinto bean, or a 9 volt battery, or whatever we always needed for those science experiments at the last minute. Everything is already included in the package! Even scissors and crayons and construction paper! It has lesson plans for 36 weeks all completely done. No more Sunday nights at 9:30 trying to plan my week. (Well, I suppose I still have to do that with Nathanael and Jordan, but not Caleb!)

I can't wait to read all these books with Caleb. We had so much fun getting everything out of the boxes. He wanted to start school tonight! All he keeps asking is to look at his schoolbooks!

So, I don't think we will start school tonight, but soon maybe??? I don't think we will be able to wait until September!!! Oh, if only Nathanael and Jordan would be this excited to do school!
