Wordless Wednesday’s

Giving them to God

Oh, it has been such a delightful day training my children and investing in their future… and Oh how gracious the Lord has been to me today! Teaching me so intimately in leading His children down His righteous path of instruction. I awoke this morning determined to surrender my children to Him and He was [...]

Teaching with Little Ones

This is my first year trying to  homeschool 3, seriously. Last year T-Rex was not interested in learning but this year he is revealing tom e that he is ready to learn and I want to at least try to have some quiet learning times with him, gently guiding him towards his abc’s and 123’s [...]

3rd Grade Curriculum

After a lot of deep study into my own heart as a CM homeschooling mother and a lot of consideration of my children’s hearts, minds and ages… I have with each decision soaked in prayer come to some final products in our curriculum. Here is what we will be using this year for each area [...]

S.H.M.I.L.Y. TIME: for our KIDS

Screaming boys and sleeping babies

Well this morning I just couldn’t rise and shine at 4:00am. Or maybe I just didn’t want to. I set my phone alarm for 6:25 only to turn it off and get up after my other sweet alarm went off at 7:15, Butterfly. Not long after Superman and T-Rex joined us and we began the [...]

A week of preperation

My mind is in overload as I reserve this week for total preperation of the coming school year which will begin for us on Aug. 6. I can not wait to get started! I have so many ideas spinning around in my head and wonderful expectations for this new year. I am going to be [...]

Catching up Post

It is 6:21 am and I just finished my task cleaning for the day. Butterfly woke me up this morning at 3:50 only 10 minutes before I was going to get up anyway. Yes, 4:00 am is my new rise and shine time. Why? Because I am CRAZY. No really, I wanted to try and [...]
