One Thing

                          One thing have I asked of the LORD, that I will seek after…(Ps. 27:4a)   In this crowded 21st century life, it’s hard to zero in on one thing to ask of the Lord. As a home educator, many things vie for attention: children, spouse, house, activities of all kinds, not the least

Hey Mama Monday: What Are YOU Reading? Children Follow by Example, Mama

Let them catch your love of reading and model your reading behavior. Seems so easy. Not always. It works for most kids. Then there are those who don’t love to read. Maybe it’s physically hard for them to read, they have a learning disability, or maybe it’s just not something they enjoy doing. I had

5 Simple Ways to Teach the Meaning of Memorial Day

Every year my kids love Memorial Day because they know that their dad will be off work. Traditionally, we have off school as well and go to a picnic with friends. The true meaning of Memorial Day sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. We focus on the picnic, friends, and the fact that local pools
