WB31 Insights Through Invest. & football

Today we completed Insights though Investigations. We did not get a chance to do the project today the baby was fussy because of something that I ate that made him gassy so we will complete the project section tomorrow.So the older students did more independent work while I worked with the younger students. Flexibility is an important characteristic of a homeschool mom since anything can happen in our school days but we still must finish our job for the day :O)

  My oldest son plays for the highschool football team.We really like our school district.The only reason we homeschool is because we are called to raise soilders of the cross. Back to football, Dominic is #83 this year. He has been practicing all summer.Football begins in June and ends the 1rst week of November. He practices 5 days a week and sometime has 2 games in a week.Varsity plays on Friday nights & Jr. Varsity plays on Saturday mornings. Football is such a team sport and a great place to learn character under the right coach. One day maybe the Lord will use him with the sport he loves. Even being a little league coach it is an awesome opportunity in reaching out to the community and making a difference in kids lives that may be on the street.
  The month of October is breast cancer awareness so the cheerleaders did a fund raiser to purchase the football players a breast cancer shirt to wear to the games. He is not a fan of pink (reason for the face) but in honor of breast cancer & remembering our Aunt Mary who died to breast cancer he will wear "pink".
 We love and miss Aunt Mary and praise the Lord that through cancer she came to know our Lord and Savior. So one day we look forward to seeing her again.
