Hey Mama Monday: Grading and Testing – Is It Necessary, Mama?

  Hey Mama,   I was quite nervous; we were not required to test our children in California. However, our new state of Colorado requires testing! Would they do well, or would the test prove that I am a failure as a teacher? I feared the latter. Although the test was for the children, I

Are You Making History Exciting, Mama?

Hey Mama, You know the saying, “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it”? Well, the same goes for your homeschool. You can learn from other Mamas what did and did not work for their kids—and you can learn how to draw closer to the Lord and lean hard on Him

Hey Mama Monday: Your Preschoolers and Little Ones, Mama

  Hey Mama,   What should you do with the littles? Play with them, read to them, take walks, bake or cook with them, clean with them, and give them lots of hugs. While you’re doing routine things, like grocery shopping, taking food to a friend, weeding, or something else, your littles are watching and

Hey Mama Monday: Embracing Our Special Children, Mama

  Hey Mama,   Want to hear some encouraging news? You can teach your children at home successfully, even if they have special needs! So many can testify to that! One of our children tested positively for Asperger’s. However, she passed the graduation requirements for our state at an earlier age than most “regular” kids.

Hey Mama Monday: Let’s Get Organized, Mama

  Hey Mama,   I once heard something freeing. It sounded like this: Organization is not an end goal; it is a continual action. It is not something you attain; it is something you continue to pursue. So, for those of you who think you have to “get organized” before you can feel confident about

Hey Mama Monday: Start Your New Year Off Right, Mama

  Hey Mama,   So much to be thankful for. Look at this time last year. You have grown. There have been trials, tribulations, problems, hurtful seasons, and pain. There has also been joy, new life, friends who have stayed closer than a brother, and blessings from the Lord’s hand so direct that you know

Hey Mama Monday: How Can You Improve Your School Year, Mama?

  Hey Mama,   How can you improve your school year? Put God first, and make sure you and your husband bathe all your plans in prayer. Put everything in His hands, and then get to work! Today is the last of the holidays, and it’s time to think about nestling into the school week

Hey Mama Monday: What Are Your Family’s Christmas Traditions, Mama?

  Hey Mama,   Enjoy this season. Stop and look at the lights. Drive through the city or town if you can at night with your family and just make it a point to slow down and take it all in. It’s so pretty right now. Really. Slow down. It will all get done. It
