Avoiding Homeschool Winter Burnout

  It’s that time of year. Winter has closed in on us. The dark nights and bleak days seem to suck out all the joy and happiness in the world. Obviously, I have a few issues. And if I’m going to burn out, it will most likely happen in the midst of winter. I can’t

Make Plans for the New Year… or Not

  “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11 “Is anyone else just so weary of to-do lists?” “As I read such admirable paths many take to set goals, define strategies using fancy programs,

Life in the Margins

  Life can feel hectic, especially this time of the year. With the Christmas season winding to a close and New Year’s around the corner, it’s the time of year we think about change. What are we going to add to our lives to make it better? A new diet, a new exercise program? Better
