Well this weekend was a nice and easy one. I had tons of fun with the family. We were about to get on our way to Chuck-E-Cheese when our car goes CAR-plop! Today we took it into the shop and hopefully we will get it back tomorrow.
Life is different without a car. I miss my car and the freedom to go when and where I want to go. I am now realizing what a blessing it is to have a car. It is amazing how we take advantage of what we have. I think we tend to overlook what we have in front of us. I thank God for ALL that I have. I hope to instill that in our children, thankfulness for what they have.
Anyways... This weekend was really kick back. No where to go and nothing to do, so we just took things slow. It was a nice change in pace for a few days. We hung out and just took our time. I played with Jay and Bee, took naps and went to church.
I've been listening to some audios from ExploringHomeschooling.org. They are really helping me raise up some Godly men for the Lord. I hope and pray everyday for them and for them to know and love the Lord. Homeschooling has just opened up my eyes to see how to really take advantage of the questions they ask and to teach them from that. Since our car broke down I explained to them that we had to take it to a mechanic and told them what a mechanic does. Jay is so funny... He was asking why didn't Daddy fix the car. I had told him that Daddy didn't know how and that he never learned. Jay had an idea, he said, "Why not let Daddy watch the mechanic so he can learn to fix it." That is a good idea but I don't think Daddy wants another thing to add on to his "To Do List." Hehe.

ewww, we're having double car problems too, one needs new tires and the other has a transmission leak - :p I agree, we don't know how much we use the car until it's gone. Hope you get it back soon!
