It must be something about the season. It’s spring here. The trees are getting green, the azaleas are just about ready to bloom. Everything is fresh and new. I love it! It gets me in the planning and organizing mood. It’s not just the house I want to organize. I’m so ready to start planning…
Evaluating Your Homeschool
It must be something about the season. It’s spring here. The trees are getting green, the azaleas are just about ready to bloom. Everything is fresh and new. I love it! It gets me in the planning and organizing mood. It’s not just the house I want to organize. I’m so ready to start planning…
Homeschooling and Housework
That’s the topic for this week’s Blog Cruise. Sometimes I feel like that title sums up my life. Sigh. On other days I rejoice that homeschooling and housework are what sums up my life. My attitude aside, those are 2 of my biggest roles. And I want to do them both well. It is my…
Bible in 90 Days
I can’t believe it, but I actually did it. I just finished reading Revelation about an hour ago. That means I read through the entire Bible in 89 days! I had read through the Bible before, but it had been awhile. I have never read through it this fast though. (Though I started the challenge…
List Progress
I’m sure everyone is on the edge of their seats wondering how much I’ve done on my list in one week. No? Well, that’s what I’m blogging about today. Switch the kids’ winter clothes for spring clothes. Clean out kids’ closets. Do a thorough dusting of the kids’ rooms. Change upstairs filter. Do a thorough…

I’m generally an organized person. I may not write everything down, but I’ve always got a plan in my head. I think that organizing is my way of maintaining control. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, actually for the most part I think it’s good to have a plan. But sometimes we have to…
Pirose Nursing Cover
If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know we have a new member of our family. He’ll be 2 months old tomorrow! It’s been an adjustment, as new babies always are, but the blessings far outweigh the trials. In the past, I’ve mainly reviewed homeschool products and Christian books. But with this new…
Encouraging Moments
I’ve heard that e-mail is on its way out. Younger people don’t even use it anymore. I guess I am officially “not young” because I get a lot of e-mail. I mean a lot. You may be wondering why a homemaker like me gets so much e-mail. I haven’t done a statistical analysis or anything,…
