- Power of the Ten Commandments
Today was a really rough day with the girls. They were not wanting to get along at all in the morning. It figures because I was trying to host a conference. This has been going on for about a week or so now and deeply grieves my heart. I have been praying for a breakthrough and today we got one! Praise God.
I was making them just sit with me while I was working out on the treadmill. They had to

- A Good Sport - Tales of Parenting my ADHD Child
This is a poor quality photo but check out my youngest girl's shirt! Does it look a little big? Well that is because it is! All because her momma didn't fill out the right size on the form. All the other kids got their right sized, nicely fit shirts. That was because their moms knew how to fill out a form. All of them but me. When I say all I am talking 167 parents who know how to properly fill

I am over at Heart of the Matter today. Heart of the Matter is an amazing online homeschooling ministry. Go check them out here.“Yeah, Mommy is sitting on the floor!” My oldest daughter exclaimed as she peeked around the corner at me on the floor teaching my youngest money facts. We were playing store. Playing with actual money while pretending to buy things is a very effective technique for

Motherhood equals a Woman of many hats. I don’t mean those crazy big church going hats that are all fancy like. I mean hats that are sometimes messy. Hats that are not in the literal sense at all. These hats are the actual roles given to us to play. As a mother I can be wearing my nurse hat, my doctor hat, my house cleaner hat or my teacher hat at any given time. At times I could Read more.<!--

Do you just see it as a sign to give
- HOTM - An Entrusted Treasure
As you approach this New Year with the last half of the homeschooling year in mind, I want you to consider this Scripture passage. Acts 17:26-28 states, “From one man God made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and
- Homeschool Snow Days
My poor children. They have missed tons of school cancellations because we homeschool and do not need to take snow days! We have had so much snow that the public schools have been out tons of times this school year.As a homeschool family, this is just the norm. We don't break for many things. We live a life of learning so even on vacation you can expect us to be in some sort of school. We love
- Homeschooling - Heart of the Matter Online
I just love that homeschooling can be something the entire family can experience together. Just as not all people are gifted in all things, so perhaps they should not teach all things. In our home, I teach from a curriculum just because it helps me stay focused and accountable. I adore the privilege I have to teach my children. I teach them best the things I like the best. All individuals are
