Ultimate Homeschool Planner Giveaway

The Ultimate Homeschool Planner -a planning system designed by Debra Bell

I received this planner at the BEECH Retreat back in January and have had a good chance to look through it over the past few months. This is a wonderful planner for homeschool moms! I sure wish I would have had this way back when I was in the thick of homeschooling 3 or 4 kids. I would have loved using the planning pages and the journal pages too.

Multiple student plans can be organized by day and week for an “at a glance” look at what needs to be accomplished.
Each page has nice big boxes and line spacing for you to hand write your information easily.
There are places to record weekly notes, supplies needed, and other family appointments.
Goal pages for character and academic goals.
There are introductory pages teaching you how to use this planner.
There are pages for recording weekly memorable moments! I would have used this and cherished looking back on it.
Spiral bound-it lays flat nicely on the table for easy use.
This is definitely a Christian product with spiritual encouragement and reflections.

NotebookingPages.com has introduced a brand new product…Custom Copywork Pages! This is something that I would have used just about every day when my boys were younger. The ability to create your own custom copywork is something I only dreamed about and now Debra at NotebookingPages.com has made it a reality.

You can choose your font size and style (print or cursive) and then type in your own quotes or facts along with adding decorative images and clipart from your collection. Debra has created a short video that steps you through the process and now you will have access to this great program with your Notebooking Treasury Membership.

Right now she is having an anniversary sale with $25 off the Treasury Membership and over $100 worth of free gifts for every current and new member!

Harmony Fine Arts has donated the Mini-Unit for Van Gogh and Handel as a free gift to all Treasury Members! You will receive access to the $100 worth of free downloads later in May.

Last Homeschool Day Ever

In my wildest dreams I never thought the last day of homeschooling would ever arrive. I think it was a defensive act to push that day far off from my thinking. When you are in the middle of homeschooling, you just take a deep breath and do what you have to do in order to get the days and years done. Your mind is always filled with what will come next, wondering how it is all going to work out. You worry and fret over so many decisions that you need to make as you go along. There really is no time to sit and think about what will come after the homeschooling.

How is it going to feel to *just* be a mom and wife? When will it feel normal?

I lean a lot on my faith and know that my family still needs me. But the rhythm of my day will be different and the thoughts of my days will be different.

Different is okay.

It leaves room for growing…again.

This chapter may be over…it was a long chapter of seventeen years…..and things will change as the homeschooling part of my life is fades away. Soon there will only be memories. I have savored the moments over the last few years as each of my younger boys has approached this milestone. Bittersweet and exciting for all!
