This is a portfolio of the mandalas I create.

The last couple of weeks seem to have flown by. Still some ups and downs, some hard days, but most full of blessed peace. Here’s some highlights.

Since my last post I’ve had a lot of encouragement from so many people sharing verses with us. I’m compiling a list of them and will share them in their own post. I think the biggest help has been this:

This is a collection of Bible verses that are helping us through these times, providing encouragement, reducing anxiety, and building our faith. I wrote in my last entry that I was looking for some, and I’ve had so, so many shared with me that have helped us over the last week. I’ve put them all here for you and others to read and share alike, that you too may be encouraged, find strength, and hopefully help you get through these troubled times.

This week we started learning how to homeschool. We’re taking it easy at first, just a couple hours a day, mostly worksheets from teachers, and online exercises. 6 weeks off of school though means that we have to try to do something. The kids are handling it pretty well, they’re resilient like that. They don’t really understand the chaos the world is in, and that’s ok… we’ll keep them on the blue pill for as long as we can (that’s a Matrix reference if you’re not a Sci-fi fan).
