Nourishing Your Heart Will Make You Happier in Your Homeschool

  A step-by-step guide to taking care of your heart Our culture is rooted in dissecting things into different bits. While this may have been helpful at one point in history, when we were still attempting to understand many things, it has never been the way toward wholesomeness. If we want to be healthy and

Help a Poor Mama Out

  I didn’t sign up with Facebook willingly. I’m a private person and would never dream of displaying to the world what some people seem comfortable with, but marketing and a far-flung collection of friends and colleagues pressed me onto the platform. For the most part, I’m happy connecting with other science buffs and publishing

Make Mommy Time a Priority

  Over the past few months, I have been reading books about various subjects, but each has had the main theme of discipline, both spiritually and naturally. As a professional housewife and mother, I have made it my mission each day to take care of my family. Every moment is filled with so much care,

The Importance of Drinking Water

  Water, water everywhere, / Nor any drop to drink Lines from “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The speaker, a sailor on a ship, is surrounded by salt water that he cannot drink. Sometimes, I feel overwhelmed when I am told how much water I should be drinking for optimum

The Art of Giving Up

  A few years ago, I ordered the book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Everybody else was going on and on and on about how it had inspired them to declutter their homes and lives. We didn’t live in a very big place at the time (a 700-square-foot apartment), and I can remember staring,

Let There Be Rest

  One of the saddest things I’ve noticed, since becoming a parent, is how it seems that everyone is so incredibly busy all the time! It’s not like we have just one or two busy days a week; every day is packed with multiple activities, and everyone staying home at the same time is an

Summer Vacation

  Do you take a summer break from school or a summer vacation? Does it really matter which one you call it? I’m going to draw on my 15 years of home education experience and say, “Yes—it matters!” A summer break connotes (implies) a lull in activity, a break from the traditional bookwork, and maybe

The Importance of Sleep, Part 3

  Sleep deprivation is not just prevalent in adults, our children are also not getting enough sleep. As homeschoolers, we can be a bit more flexible with our children’s’ schedules; but all too often, we can become more lax with their sleep schedule as well.
