Birthday Blessings

As her name was called, she paused, collecting her thoughts she briefly wondered what did I bring?  “Oh, yes, that’s it,” she whispered.  She gathered her pink polka dotted bag from underneath her chair.  She calmly stood in front of the class, introduced herself, and then revealed to us her item that she was presenting.  …

The pig fight

One particular day this week just sticks out in my mind more than the others… the day I fought with the pig. I had an awesome morning of prayer with MOMS in Prayer moms in our community and was “pumped” for finishing out our homeschooling day, we pulled into the drive to see the pig…

The First Day of the Rest of High School.

The first day of high school is so important.  Why?  Because once it’s over, so are your first day jitters.  And now you can get ready to buckle down for the ride.   Do you remember the first day of your high school career?  I do, like it was yesterday. I remember being so worried…

Chasing goats and kissing pigs…all in a days work.

Guess what I got to do over the weekend?  Sunday School was hosting a special day for the children to help “kick off” going back to school.  My husband and I took a few small animals for the children to be able to pet and see.   The trick to that was this- we only…

Hey Mamma! You want a ride?

Last year our neighbor gave Samuel a junky riding lawn mower.  You’d think it wouldn’t be that exciting and last year it wasn’t so much for  him.  This summer, however, he has grown so much and the riding lawn mower is the next best thing.  (He even prefers it over the dirt bike! I wonder…

Growing up and saying Good-bye…

As a child, we were inseparable.  Whenever I went to her house, we’d get lost in the cow fields for hours at a time.  We’d climb trees, play in the creek bed, and hide in the hay loft.  We had tons of fun together.   Her brother and sister were older and way cool.  He…

What is the first thing that comes to you when I say the word math? Do you like math?  Did you do well with it when you were in school? Last week at this time I was out of town attending a Classical Conversations (CC) parent practicum/tutor training for this new season of my life…

The beauty of being able to play

The pediatric dentists office was busy this morning.  The waiting room didn’t have an empty chair and others were left standing.  Some children were sitting on the lap of a parent and being read too.  Others entertained themselves by watching the television or were caught exercising their thumbs on some sort of electronic device… But…

Is manna a boy or a girl?

The rain outside was pouring in candy taffy sheets this morning.  My kiddos wanted to know exactly what we were going to do.  After breakfast I told them we were going to read together. I heard a faint sigh… For our reading we took turns in the Bible with Numbers chapter 11.  We didn’t get very far…

Nature’s Praise ~

When the sun tucked down behind the hills and no longer shed her light, we went to bed.  How were we ever going to fall asleep without the fan?  Let me explain. At home we are used to the artificial sound of the fan to help us get to sleep (and for obvious reasons; to help…
