ode to joy! {or:: nerdy mom-land rejoice!}

I am giddy!

G.I.D.D.Y.

Why?  Why, you ask?  {and if you didn't ask, you should be.  This is so exciting!}

A large cardboard box arrived at my door this afternoon containing...

part of my summer reading list!

Here I am now:

Emma Kate thinks I'm "oh, so cute".  I find my slightly manic look endearing.

I'm a woman with an equipping book list in my hot little hands!

Here is what I'm excited about:

Now for some of you dear readers, five children does not constitute a large family.  For me, however, being the product of a two-child family myself, it surely does!

So large family logistics will be conquered!

And I will be fully prepared to embrace and understand our new school, Eagle Ridge Academy, which is a school that teaches in the classical education tradition.  I can't wait to read more about what we are excited to embrace!

I can't wait to dig in!  Screen porch here I come!
