Making Books from Books
I read recently that people visit, and then revisit, blogs that give them a warm, relaxed feeling as they navigate through the site. This sedated feeling includes a lack of busy, bright colors. I’m seriously considering relocating my blog to another host for several reasons, mostly business-oriented, but I like HSB and the fact that you […]
1000 Comments!
Thanks to all of you–this is quite a milestone for me, considering that I often wonder if my words reach anyone. I am humbled, and would especially like to acknowledge Marie at PumpkinsMomma who became my 1000th commentor. God bless you great guys!

What I’m Doing this Summer
Today is our niece’s very first dance recital, and the rest of the family went to support her. I wanted to go, but there is so much to do before we head out of town on tomorrow. Anyway, as much as I hate to miss her debut (she’s only four years old—too cute!), I […]
Weekly Homeschool Wrap-up–June 21, 2009
I am convinced that this is the problem with summer for me—too much that I want to do, and fewer pressures to fit it all into a time slot. Anyway, I woke up with plans to pray and eat breakfast on today, hubby’s and my fast day, work on a business project, and […]
Our God, Charlotte Mason, and a Post-Modern World
Don’t you just love that first-thing-in-the-mid-morning inspiration? Linda Fay posted a link to another blogger’s entry on how Charlotte Mason’s approaches connect our children to what is God’s purpose for them while here on Earth. Here is just a taste: I believe Charlotte’s ideas and methods resonate deep within us on a core level. We do this […]
Embracing our Uniqueness
Now with a couple of restful nights under my belt, I’m beginning to look at this summer more closely, as well as next school year. I had grown completely frustrated with the kids on Monday. We had a long day after little got done last week—we didn’t even get home from running errands until […]

Happy Birthday, son!
I will quickly run out of time during this week, and with my sister headed to town on tomorrow, I thought to post this early. Our son’s birthday is actually on Friday, but that is also dress rehearsal in the evening. I’m still trying to decide when to celebrate as a family, but as for me and my blog, we’ll […]

(SO NOT) the Lazy Days of Summer
After not slowing down for a much-needed trip to the grocery store, breakfast was very ho-hum this morning: buttered grits. Actually, this has been the state of my mind in the last couple of days—lacking things that are grand and exciting, and being very complacent amongst the routine of life. I think what […]
