Thankful for FREEBIES!

Recently I attended our local homeschool association's planning meeting. Some of the moms brought FREEBIE items that they no longer needed. Well, let me tell you, God must have sent one of those mamas with goodies just for our family! I got Sonlight's reading curriculum for 1st and 2nd grade! I was so happy to find these! I'd read so much about them but just couldn't commit to any particular reading curriculum for our girls. Just the night before the meeting I'd been online looking at Sonlight. Imagine my surprised when I saw just what I needed for both of our girls sitting right in front of me on a table of FREEBIES! I'm telling you, I could have danced!!!

Then, lo and behold there was something else we needed. Not something we just wanted but something we needed! CHOREGANIZERS! My heart did a little leap as I picked up the ziploc bag containing the book and cards. Truly, a gift not only from this kind mama who so generously gave to all of us but from God. I know He realized we needed some help getting our little people motivated. Right now Brinley and Bailey are in their rooms "organizing". They checked their cards and are busy at their tasks. LOVE IT! I did a search online to see how other families might be using CHOREGANIZERS and I found that the Pioneer Woman has a nice little post about how she uses them. Check it out!
