I was so excited Monday morning when I heard a flapping outside my boy’s window. I opened the shade to see… Here is the male bring more nesting material. Home sweet home. Then Monday night. Here is Mama Tuesday. On Wednesday evening, I got a peek in the nest and there are…
We took our first trip to the Creation Museum on Thursday. We had been looking forward to it since we heard they were building it. It was not a disappointment. The museum was very well done. The exhibits were beautiful. It was wonderful to visit a place that is dedicated to refuting evolution. They presented so…
I just found a link to a really cool quiz on motherstyles. I found the link at Little Homeschool on the Hill. The quiz is based on Meyers-Briggs type indictator test.

I’m sure you’ve heard the expression "He’d lose his head if it wasn’t attached." Well, that is so not me. I take pride in my organizational abilities. I like to arrange things. I have places to store most everything. But lately….. I don’t know what the problem is. Actually, I think I do know what…
Maybe I should call this the semi-weekly report. I missed last week reporting and we finished up some major things we were working on. See my posts on our World War I lapbook and our Heat and Energy lapbook. This week we spent a lot of time outside. The weather was warm and my littlest…
