Our Upcoming World Tour
It’s ironic that I missed my weekly wrap-up this week given that this is wrap-up week for most of our school work. The kids are still completing math and science work, but we devoted all of the other time to completing year-end projects. Each of the kids has a topic that they select from this […]
More Ministry, Less Misery
I’ve gotten a lot done today, but I am tired with a capital “T” and ready for bed. Last night was the second of two consecutive nights that I’ve stayed up late and gotten up early. I can’t even remember why I was up except that I got engrossed in something on television, and […]
The Tea Party that Was, then Wasn’t, then Was(?)
Where is my heart today? Contemplating the reality of friendships, and one of the hardest tasks of a parent—guarding the heart of a child. It all started a couple of weeks back when our youngest decided to go to a neighbor’s house to play. Given that she’s five years old, we never let […]

The Role of a Husband (HOTM Article)
What role does your husband play in your homeschool day–principal? Homework checker? Cheerleader? Field trip coordinator (like mine–LOL)? I had some thoughts about the role that husbands play before the actual day-to-day implementation of our plans begin, and I chose to share them here…

Wednesdays, aka Dinosaur Days
For the lion’s share of this semester, Wednesday has been “Dinosaur Day.” At least, that’s what the 5-year-old calls it. This is the one day of the week that we put aside all of our books (well, at least our phonics studies–will I ever learn?) and have a bit of fun with science. I found […]
Happy Birthday, Halle!
Tomorrow is the oldest’s birthday, and I saw the neatest idea for celebrating from both Karen’s and Dawn’s blogs. It occurs to me as she gets older that when we began homeschooling, one of my goals was that our kids would be our friends as adults. I could list things I love about her, but […]
