Life happens...

in a family which makes learning in a perfect world something that only works in mom's study notebook. I had planned on trying to get back to a little more routine in our studies as both Josh and I are wanting and needing this but this past month has thrown our family for a loop in the journey of life. Instead of our planned start in July we have found ourselves trying to make forward motion with an older brother's epilepsy and breakthrough seizures and the myriad tangled brush called the medical system. That, and a few other issues, have kept us continuing our own summer voyages of self-discovery at least for a little while longer. Maybe that's what is needed anyway. So, I find myself reading on education and homeschooling and Josh, well, he is hiking and sitting quietly on the path of the things that have filled his summer thus far. Learning, sharing, and life continue for our family just not in the way that most are used to seeing. The routine will have to wait for just awhile longer and who knows we may even find something wonderful in these other life lessons.
