Welcome to a brand new week right here on Ranch Raised!
We survived the county fair! We sweated. We ate some great food. We worked really hard. We drank some yummy drinks. Our little boy spent every minute he could on the bounce houses. We came home sticky, stinky, and celebrating a lot of success. So, it was truly another banner year, in every sense of the statement.
With little to no time to recover. My oldest daughter and I head out today to start our pilgrimage to Oklahoma to move her down to school. While I would love for this to be like Hallmark movie where the whole family jumps in the car and caravans down to college to help carry boxes and get her settled, the reality is, there is always a ranch to manage. So the rest of the crew will fire back up the haying machines and go after some more hay that we desperately need. My second oldest daughter will be navigating a new chapter of her story, on her own without me. She is going to take an ag class in town at public school so she can be in the local FFA chapter. She is very excited. I’m still a little apprehensive about being committed to the public school schedule.
During my travels this week, I might get some time to open my computer and order homeschool curriculum….or I might not. I’m a “wing it” sorta gal, so it will be what it will be. And we will ease back into academics in the coming week.
I’m keeping all the families headed back to school on my heart and praying for a smooth transition. Which also reminds me, to remind you, to slow down and stay safe on those streets and the kiddos are heading back to school!
