30 Day Challenge: Conscious Living

  Gratitude a matter of conscious living, NOT of the heart! Awareness that I am needing a thankful perspective, yet practically what does that look like? When my kids are displaying attitudes of entitlement, unappreciative of what has been given, and then always wanting more, how do I cultivate in them grateful living? With a

Hey Mama Monday: What Does It Mean to Delight Yourself in the Lord?

  Hey Mama, “Delight yourself in the Lord; And He will give you the desires of your heart.” – Psalm 37:4 There’s a lot to this verse. What does it mean to delight yourself in the Lord? Just to smile at the thought of Him? Just to say a quick prayer that you love Him?

Tis The Season To Find Stories

  Blessed is the child who loves old books—in particular old, Christ-honoring, historical books. Why? Because many western historical accounts are bursting with stories; stories that have withstood the erosion of time. One example that always reminds me of the gripping power old stories hold is Of Plymouth Plantation. This Thanksgiving season, as I’m reading

The Joy of A Day Spent Exploring

  When I first heard of homeschooling, I thought it must be an activity very like public schooling, only in your own converted schoolroom. In fact that is precisely how I began homeschooling my kids. They started third grade in one end of our bedroom. I set up two desks with supplies and workbooks. I

Chasing Perfect

  It’s easy to fall into the ole comparison trap—especially around the holidays. After all, we are given Pinterest-fueled visions of picture perfect gatherings and celebrations. Don’t get me wrong. I love Pinterest as much as the next visual learner but comparing my own often meager contributions to a perfect celebration can be quite overwhelming.

Every Problem Has A Solution

  I grew up with an undiagnosed case of dyslexia with numbers. Even simple addition and subtraction problems would prove frustrating. I heard, “You made a silly mistake,” more times than I can count, and I always had issues with showing my work. I was always coming up with the answer but would get marked

How to Encourage Thankfulness by Counting Your Blessings Daily

  Every November, thankfulness abounds. Thanksgiving draws near; people start to think about all the blessings in their lives. Posts about gratitude appear across social media channels. Multitudes of people share things they’re thankful for. Then the calendar changes. As fall turns into winter, displays of thankfulness fade away, until next year. My family fell

How to Boost Your Child’s Love to Learn

  Before I began my homeschool journey a decade ago, I bought a thick, red notebook for note-taking. On the inside cover of this red notebook, I composed a list of my 6 WHY’s for educating my kids at home. One of my WHY’s (#5 to be exact) noted to impress upon my children a
