My Shelter in the storm

“Jesus, Jesus, wake up! Don’t you care that we’re all about to die?” The boat had already taken in water and fear swept over them as they clung helplessly to the sides. Their hearts pounded. Their minds raced. They cried out for help. Jesus lay sleeping in the helm. How could he be sleeping at…

The Orchestrated Day

Each morning as we awake little do we know what the Lord has tucked into our day and how it will play out. This day began like others the only difference in being the last day of our Classical Conversations community meeting for this year. I had mixed emotions. Not only was this my first…

Where does power come from?

Sorry about the delay from writing my last blog. Life has been happening full steam ahead! So let’s see, where was I? Oh yes, I left off with Common Core now it’s onto glass jars (I wish I could see your expression!) Six pint sized glass jars where standing in a row. As I lifted the…

Have you heard about Common Core?

The first time a friend mentioned the Common Core to me I thought to myself that’s too bad and went about my business, oblivious to how Common Core was going to affect my family in the years to follow… …Lattice homework 101. My oldest son struggled with it for quite sometime and I didn’t know…

Tradition and Remembrance…

What are your traditions? Now, I’m not strictly referring to Christmas.  I mean any tradition. For example Easter, Thanksgiving, Church, or even the exclusion thereof. Why do you do them? With Christmas only a few weeks away some of us are busy shopping, putting up a tree with decorations, and attending Christmas events until our…

Riding with the Moment

“It’s time for bed boys!” They quickly began changing clothes, brushing teeth, and in between doing so, began asking me some strange questions.  “Hey, Mom, how do you like your water?  Hot, cold, or in between?” Being in my own separate moment I was slightly oblivious to what they were doing around me, and answered…
