Our Newest Adventure

The two youngest Pressons have embarked on a new and exciting adventure! Homeschool!!  I am on the journey with them and loving it!  My heart yearns to be at home, and I also love to teach!  The combination of the two equals homeschool!  Riley is in the fifth grade and Landry in first.  Riley enjoys all things literature and history and detests arithmetic, a boy after mine own heart.  Landry loves every single litte aspect of learning, which makes teaching him so much fun!  We have now been in school for a month.  Many changes have been made since our first day.  I am learning to try things differently and be open to adjusting our schedule.  I am so thankful for this special time with Riley and Landry!  It is not always perfect and smooth, but I know the three of us are learning so much, especially about each other. 

The following pictures are a tour of our classroom that my incredible husband built downstairs, with mucho help from our nephew, Brad!

 Landry's job is to update our day and weather each morning.
 Shhh. He is taking a Penmanship Test.
 The Popular Art Station
 Landry is marking his vowels and special sounds.
 Ready for the day!
 My shelves - my favorite part of our room.  Thank you, Brad!

 My desk :)
 Landry is DEEP in thought!
I pray that the Lord will bless our time together!!
