I'm ashamed to see that it has been over a month since I last posted. Terribly shameful of me. I should begin by saying, "Merry Christmas" and "Happy New Year".
Instead of chronicling a long list of things that have kept me from writing, I started thinking about what I am doing.
School.
Five children. Five different learning styles. Five different levels for math and reading. Memory work and science experiments. Geography...phonics. We just finished our day and the clock reads 3:51!
It seems like we just finished lunch.
So, the day is mostly gone, and I don't have a plan for dinner. The guilt of not blogging has pulled me to sit down and write. The dreary, frigid weather has kept me from running, so I don't have a long list of posts from which to draw ideas. I desired, mainly, to stop and say, "I'm still here."
The quiet reading time has ended for the five year old, as he's reading over my shoulder. I suppose that means my writing time is over too.
But, I'm still here.
