The last few weeks have been VERY hit and miss with our
Expedition Earth travels due to sickness. My youngest was very sick for just under 2 weeks and I spent a lot of time holding her in my arms (which meant no shower for 4 days....yikes!). I was so incredibly blessed during that time by several of my fellow homeschool moms who offered to come pick up my older two girls and take them for a portion of the day/evening as well as to and from Friday School with our co-op! Getting that time to rest and know my girls were in good hands was wonderful. It's amazing how you can feel like a new woman after a 2 hour nap (when you've gone night after night without sleep).
So we recently spent 1 day each, on 3 separate countries, doing the very basic stuff and most important finding their location on the map!
Here are some highlights from Panama, Venezuela, & Peru!
