I'm so excited about the latest Timberdoodle blog hop, The Kids Behind the Blog! It's a great opportunity for me to take a few minutes and introduce you to my kiddos.
A with a baby chick.
First up is A. At 15, A really enjoys science (especially Astronomy), arts and crafts, playing the flute and reading. If you are looking for her, you will most likely find her curled up with a book. Although she can be a bit shy and more reserved she is really thriving in her speech class this year at CoOp.
B is on Blue Lightning
Next is B. At 13, she just started her 3rd season of playing volleyball and really enjoys it. I'm lucky to be her assistant coach this year and I love that she plays hard and is constantly improving as an athlete. She also plays trumpet in the homeschool band. She really excels in language arts and writing and is thinking about becoming an author one day.
C with his all-star baseball team last year.
C is 12. His favorite sport is definitely baseball. Go Astros! He is taking a break this fall but he can't wait to start again in the spring. He plays percussion in the homeschool band. He loves board games and all things math! Last year he took a theater class in our homeschool CoOp and did a great job and this year he is participating in a musical theater class.
D about to leave for a gymnastics meet.
D is 9 and still enjoys competitive gymnastics. She is currently a level 4 and is working on upskills for level 5. She is still our spunky and fun spirited daughter that brings everyone around her joy.
Miss E at home
E just turned 8! We are still trying to find a dance studio for her. It's been a year but she is still interested in dance and misses it. She loves to create and has a natural curiosity about things.
F and I after a long, hot soccer game.
F is 5 and has just discovered his love of soccer. It has been a blast to be his soccer coach and watch his love for the game grow. He enjoys sports in general and can often be found playing with his brothers.
G in the car.
G is 3 and is a ham and constantly saying funny things. The other day he woke up early and came into my room to see if it was "good morning" yet. One time he was telling us a story and told us there was a little Grant named Bear (instead of a little Bear named Grant). G makes us all laugh and also keeps us on our toes.
If you can't tell I couldn't be more proud of my kids. We all have our differences and our quirks but they help make us who we are. I enjoy watching my kids learn and grow and I feel blessed that I have the opportunity to homeschool them. It's not always easy - there are good times and ugly times. I'm so thankful to call these kids mine.
