God knows the desires of my heart.  Jesus, my Savior, loves me beyond [...]

Not Me! Monday (On Wednesday)

 
 

Following Leslie’s lead, this is “Not Me! Monday” — (the Wednesday version).
I’ve NOT done this before, so here goes:

The Science “Behind” His Brain.

 
I have a new homeschool revolution!  It is very apparent that the following is true…
The six year old’s brain is located in his Derriere!
Seriously….
We did an experiment. 
He was perched upon top of his chair, feet in the chair, knees in all sorts of positions, and incessantly moving around.  In this position, he was not paying [...]

Give it up.

Seasons of dryness…I think I’m going through one.  What do you do when you want so much, and yet just can’t seem to get there? 
I’m not talking about material things.  I’m talking about the personal, evident, special touch that only God gives in your life.  –The emotion that comes along with that personal relationship with God.  [...]

Our Daily Devotion.

Since we’ve been talking homeschool a while (it seems like that’s all I have time for anymore!), I thought I would share with you more of what goes on in Bible class.
We begin each morning with a “Quiet Time”.  I set the timer and the idea is that each of us spend time at the [...]

What It’s All About

The thrill of learning!  The excitement of knowing that you actually understand! 
I have been blessed to be “front and center” to witness the miracle of knowledge! 
Last night, the three year old was somewhat uncontrollable in his excitement.  He has figured out that more than one object can start with the same letter.
For instance, the ABC [...]
