What’s Your Homeschool Bucket List?

Since the 2007 movie The Bucket List, it seems everyone has a bucket list for something. A bucket list is defined by Merriam-Webster (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bucket%20list) as “a list of things that one has not done before but wants to do before dying.” Many of these lists are life lists, work lists, or self-improving lists. Recently, I

Well Grounded in God’s Word, Mama

The Bible resource we use is . . . the Bible. As soon as our kids can read Genesis 1:1, they get their own large print Bible and off we go! This is the most important textbook in our homeschool. Here are just seven reasons why. 1. Important for Our Conviction for Homeschooling  What do you say

Why We Homeschool

We’ve all been asked, “Why do you homeschool?” I always give a different answer depending on where I am, what I am doing, and how much time I have until the kids get antsy. Putting down my answer in words gave me clarity and helped me remember some basics that I can now share quickly.

Hey Mama Monday: Teachable Moments, Mama

  Hey Mama,   When you homeschool, you have the gift of time. Time to be a super model. Not the kind the world drools over. I mean the real kind – a model of the Lord your God. A super role model to your children, who are always watching. You’re not perfect, and you

4 Ways to Cultivate a Teachable Heart in Your Children

  A teachable heart enables a Christian to respond to God’s authority with a big “Yes!” while a stubborn heart rejects his Word and does things their own way. As homeschooling parents, we can raise children with teachable hearts who follow after God and His ways. “Above all else guard your heart, for it is

Early Spiritual Training

I listen to the little voice coming from the back seat as my three-year-old granddaughter sings “Now the Day Is Over.” Joy swells my heart as I realize her spiritual training is taking hold so early. How is it that one so young knows this old standard? Her mommy sings it with her every night

Oh, Lord! Who Am I? What Am I Doing?

  Who am I? What in the world am I doing? Those incessant, unanswerable questions reverberated through my consciousness like an endless ping-pong game. Every new homeschool day began with a question of conscience and disorientation: What am I supposed to be doing today? My first year of homeschooling, I set out to discover some

Your Child’s Four Least-Favorite Words

  I saw the look on my granddaughter’s face when I asked her to perform an unexpected, undesired task. It’s the same slit-eyed stare my mother saw a thousand times before the one-word challenge—“Why?”—tumbled from my lips, my hands on my hips. Mama’s retort was as rapid, “Because I said so.” Sting! Those words would
