What to Do With Santa

by admin 14 Comments

  I’m not sure where you stand on the issue.  What should we do with Santa?  To celebrate him or hide him?  To visit him and let him bring toys, or to openly provide the gifts ourselves? To be honest, I’m not sure where I stand anymore.  We all need to show each other some grace and stop pointing fingers.  We need to stop whispering … [Read more...]

Should You Homeschool Through the Holidays?

by admin 23 Comments

Should you homeschool through the holidays?  It is one of the greatest things about homeschooling--the choice to choose when we will be having school.  If you are blessed with lots of family and holiday festivities to attend, it may be wise to take a step back and enjoy a bit of an extended break.  If you are like me, however, the holiday season … [Read more...]

The Best Bibles for Different Ages

by admin 21 Comments

As the rain and the snow    come down from heaven, and do not return to it    without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish,    so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth:    It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire … [Read more...]

The Black Friday Debacle

by admin 15 Comments

Every Coin Has 2 Sides Black Fridays Past I used to adore Black Friday.  Thanksgiving evening was all about plotting my moves for the next day.  I lived for the rush of cold wind as I waited in line for the store to open, moving swiftly through the crowds with sure feet and a beating heart.  Even the traffic was invigorating, but not so much as … [Read more...]

Reining in the Wish List

by admin 12 Comments

If you have a child that is old enough to talk, you have probably been there.  The toys were all bought and maybe even gift wrapped. You sighed with relief that your Christmas shopping was all done.  Then it happened...your child mentioned something else they wanted for Christmas!  They even boldly proclaimed that that was what they REALLY wanted. … [Read more...]

Faith. It’s important all the time, but in this Faith. It’s important all the time, but in this season of uncertainty, it feels even more important. I keep asking God to change my heart if what I want is not what he has for me, but the pull just keeps getting stronger. I am certain of what I hope for. It’s a struggle to be just as certain that He will provide it. But He is faithful even when we are not. Thank goodness!  So we will praise Him in the storm...and wait. #faith #waitingplace #godisgood #hewillprovide
