Tuesday, 18 December 2018 by TOSBlog

  I previously shared with you some of the lessons I have been learning about how setting boundaries with our children and with others can help us homeschool more effectively. However, sometimes the biggest boundary conflict does not come from without; it comes from within. Have you ever felt like your homeschool day just “gets

Wednesday, 05 December 2018 by TOSBlog
obedience
  “Mom! Joleen stole something from the store,” yelled my older brother. My heart thundered in my five-year-old chest. I knew I was in trouble and would have to make it right. The funny thing is that despite a few isolated incidents, I was an obedient child. So why did I steal a pink bouncy

  Last month, I wrote about the challenge of setting boundaries with my children and how important that is to homeschooling effectively. Another area where it is helpful to learn and apply appropriate boundaries is with other adults in your life. One of the ways that many homeschoolers face an invasion of boundaries is unsolicited

Family Fitness

Thursday, 01 November 2018 by TOSBlog
fitness
  Many would agree, and say, that they believe fitness is good for their health and well-being; but only about half of us exercise three or more days a week. Fitness increases lung capacity, muscle tone, and blood flow. It stimulates your brain, sharpens listening skills, and improves problem-solving skills. Fitness delays age-associated memory loss.

Give Your Kids Unstructured Social Time and Watch Their Ability to Connect With Others Flourish

Thursday, 25 October 2018 by TOSBlog
social time
  Socialization and Human Connection are not Synonymous Moving from a small town to a big city changed what kinds of activities were available to us as homeschoolers. Where we came from, the only things available were unstructured playdates and mom’s coffee nights. It was wonderful. Moving to a big city meant there were so

Tuesday, 23 October 2018 by TOSBlog
  When I was an elementary school teacher, the school district set the curriculum and pacing guide. As a homeschool mom, the idea of planning my daughter’s curriculum was daunting, at first. I thought about what I wanted Clarissa to learn before she graduated from our household. I asked my husband, Tim, what he thought

Three Thoughts on Balancing Relationships & To-Do Lists – Part One

  Do you ever feel like you’re on a see-saw of choosing between relationships or chores? Work and people? As an unmarried woman in her mid-twenties, I never would have foreseen this as a problem. Yet, if there was one struggle I’ve battled more in navigating young adulthood, it would be this very one. Do
