Having listed the kids’ numerous suggestions on how to improve our school (as well as what they like, lest I focus solely on what not’s right), I was dumbfounded for a moment. In hindsight, it’s probably because the six-year-old went last, and it was hard to write down that long list of what could change without […]
Homeschool Survey–pt.1 (the Feedback)
I was so inspired by Kysha’s post on asking her kids for feedback that I built up the courage decided to sit our kids down, one by one, and ask their opinions about our school. I made no promises about any changes, but agreed to listen without interruptions (except for clarification), without judgment, and most importantly, […]

It’s weekly wrap-up time! If you want to join in, we’d love to see what is going on with you, so please visit Mary. From where I sat this past week, As an individual, I… am having to hold a firm line–between my mind and my heart, that is–on sticking […]
Time to Worship
Where and when do you make time for worship? I so admire women who will operate in a Mary-like spirit, making the time to sit at the feet of Jesus on a regular basis. But I’ve come to realize that Martha isn’t so bad, either, and I wrote more about it here…
Time to Worship
Where do you find time to worship? I don’t write this as a way of saying that it is impossible to find the time, but instead to question where are you positioned when you make the time to worship. As a Christian woman who has spent most of my life in church (minus some […]

2010-11 Reading Plans
‘The study of great books allows the past to speak for itself, combining history, creative writing, philosophy, politics, and ethics into a seamless whole. The goal…is a greater understanding of our own civilization, country, and place in time, stemming from an understanding of what has come before us…The goal of classical education is not an […]

Weekly Homeschool Wrap-Up–March 28, 2010
Well, a lot has happened in a week, if only in my mind—HA HA. I shared before that Carol is in the midst of major life changes, and Mary, whose blog is so warm and welcoming, has agreed to take over the weekly wrap-up meme. Continuing to post this meme would give me an excuse […]
Boys to Men
I so enjoyed reading Kerimae’s post on the relationship between a father and his son. There is something so special about watching a man speak into another man’s life, and with all due respect to the number of very special single mothers in my life, I consider myself very blessed. Our pastor shared with us […]

Introducing…
Me! Though my primary blog, to date, is http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/bbullard, I have been praying and flirting with the idea of having a WordPress blog for well over a year now. I cannot deny that since Word 2007 will “automatically” post to WordPress with a few clicks of a button, this seems like a natural step in […]
