Hey Mama Monday: 10 Reasons Today Went Better than You Thought

  Hey Mama, Today went better than you thought. Let’s see why: Your kids laughed their silly heads off today at least once. They were fed, and they are just FINE. Your house is a disaster, like 99% of other homeschool mommies’ houses are. But all barf and other icky stuff is cleaned up and

Hey Mama Monday: Mama, His Mercies Are New Every Day

  Hey Mama, I don’t know about you, but I can always use friends who help me bear the weight of homeschooling and mothering, and sometimes those friends are all that are keeping me in an upright position. (Grin) Just stopping by to remind you to pray tonight. Not that I’d expect you to forget;

Hey Mama Monday: Are You Counting Days, Mama?

  Hey Mama, Count the days. Right? You have Monday through the weekend with your kids, and then your week is over. Finito. Done. This particular week will be forever gone. Any opportunities we choose not to seize, any moments we decide not to give that hug and kiss, any choices we make to scowl

The Glad Game!

  Let me introduce you to Pollyanna. Raised in a poor but happy home, she lost her missionary parents and is sent to live with her rich but mean Aunt Polly. The atmosphere of her new home is dreary and gloomy. However, Pollyanna brings joy and gladness to the mansion as well as the entire

Hey Mama Monday: Are You Patient, Mama?

  Hey, Mama! You gotta know this: they will utterly fail sometimes. Your children are a work in progress, so resist the temptation to think they have arrived. You are setting yourself up for disappointment or even anger if you do. Think about your own walk with the Lord. He is the perfect Parent. There

The Beauty of Morning Time

  I rushed about the kitchen glancing at the clock as I tossed cereal into bowls and apple juice into cups. Late to school. Again. Ugh. When I signed up for this homeschool thing, I thought I’d enjoy more time. More time to clean, cook, do laundry, and read. As these thoughts raced through my

Hey Mama Monday: Stay Soft, Mama!

  Hey, Mama! God’s Word promises us trials. Some of us know a little too well what those are (or so we think). They are tests, spiritual ones, that God uses to grow us into Christ’s likeness… provided we don’t resist the lesson and avoid what He’s attempting to show us. If we do, we

Homeschooling: The Myth of ‘Poor Socialization’

From the TeachingtheWord Bible Knowledgebase Part four of a series. Read part three. Are Christian homeschooling parents in danger of raising children who are “socially stunted” or “hothouse Christians” who cannot function in the “real world”? What does Scripture say? Christian parents often express the fear that their children will be “stunted socially” if they homeschool them. Some

Hey Mama Monday: Mama, Should You Be a Referee or a Trainer?

  Do your kids squabble? Does it drive you bananas when they fight, non-stop? When they were babies, I just couldn’t wait for them to be big enough to interact and play with their older siblings. It would be so cute! They’d be best friends, and love each other, get along famously, and the older

It’s Been a Week!

  It’s been a hard week at my house. As I sit here at my computer to write some encouraging words, my mind is blank. The truth is, I even opened a browser and got sucked into social media for a while. Parenting is not always easy. Although our children are a blessing, their need

Raising Heroes for Jesus

  Everyone in our culture seems to be obsessed with superheroes. Everyone talks about the movies and when the next one is coming out. I hear teens and children talk about superheroes as if they are real people. I have watched one or two superhero movies, and I walk away so disturbed by the character
