Destressing the Holidays

 
 
Holidays can always become very stressful for us moms.
 
We find ourselves with a list of party invites, family gatherings, our shopping lists and  don't forget the Christmas play practices, and the Church Christmas party.
 
All this is added to what we already have on our busy plates.
 
Sometimes we find ourselves just overwhelmed with it all..
 
While I may not be able to help you with your lists, I do have a
few tips that can help you in the school department.
 
How to have a stress free Holiday School Season:
 
Lighten the load...
 
I have found that a lighter load of official school work.. is the key to a stress free month.  Who said that you have to do every subject
every day of every week of every month!
 
Lighten your load this month, you can always catch up later!
 
 
Enjoyable projects...
 
Find things that your child and you enjoy and do them...
My girls love to help me bake, so doing December, we spend a whole lot of time baking... getting ready for all those parties!
 
 
Or you can...
 
Take this  month off
 
I know may homeschooling families that just take the month of December off!  A winter vacation if you will..
 
 
 
Happy December!

Scripture of the Month

1 Thessalonians 5:24
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

He is faithful to do all He has promised in his Word. I'm so glad that he is faithful to meet our needs and to give us our wants. There is no one Greater than OUR LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!
