Wow, those are simply words I never thought I would say. I never thought about walking into the bathroom and seeing All of his stuff gone. Walking into the closet, ALL of his clothes are gone. No men's underwear in the drawer and no men's socks. I've seen all these things for 18 years- I've even kept looking at them on days when I would have liked to throw them out the window!! But they were always there..... and now they're not. Strange.
Luckily for me, it's not permanent. He's accepted a job in Mississippi and has moved back to start. The kids and I are staying in North Carolina until we close on the house that we are currently under contract on. Things are ever changing in the Scribner Clan- some changes are just stranger than others- like it seeing your husbands underwear in the drawer it's been in for 18 years.
Pray for us during this time. It's going to be a tough 5 weeks but we got this!

Always an adventure....
I've been thinking for a long time about homeschooling. Meghan does okay in school but she struggles. She just doesn't pick things up as quickly as some kids do so she falls behind relatively easily. Once she falls behind, she gets overwhelmed and the cycle starts. We've tried different things to help and none seem to work so we are trying homeschooling. Her and Connor's official last day as public school students was today and I'm nervous!
As the mom, I'm responsible for so much in their life but have always rested in the fact that their education was in the hands of their teachers. I have always helped with homework and sometimes even in the classroom but I've never been the teacher before. I've been praying a lot about this and really looking for God to answer me. The funny thing is, I think He's answered me many times and I've been refusing to listen. I believe that God has really put it on my heart to teach my kids.... so here we go!
I don't know a lot about homeschooling so I have a lot to learn. I'm nervous that I won't educate my kids properly enough for them to be functional, contributing members of our society. But, I'm counting on the saying "If God brings you to it, He'll bring you through it!" I know there will be days that I need to be dragged to keep moving but I'm excited to start this new adventure!

New Year!
It's so hard to believe that 2015 is upon us already!! What a year! Connor spent lots of time at the doctor and spent time in 2 different casts so hoping for an easier year for him!
It's so easy to make resolutions at the New Year but yet it's so hard to keep them! Just 2 short years ago I was determined to lose weight, and I did.. I was also determined to keep it off.. Which I did not.
So here we are, start of a new year and a new determination to lose weight! Wish me luck!!
