As I mentally went through the day’s accomplishments several days ago, it occurred to me: life is getting easier. Strange thought, since I have more children than ever before. It’s been a slow process, but it’s been a process. My children are getting more helpful, more useful, better trained than ever before. A wise woman […]
TOS Review: Apologia Educational Ministries
Apologia Educational Ministries has done a few reviews with the Old Schoolhouse Magazine that I’ve had the privilege of being on, and when this one came up, I was thrilled to receive it as well. We’ve been nothing but pleased with everything from Apologia and I expected nothing less than fabulous from this newest review, three […]
Project Boys Church Coat
I discovered a long time ago that having a church/dress coat alongside a play coat for each child saved me a whole lot of stress come Saturday night when I found their play coat covered in mud. Since then, I’ve maintained two coats for each child in the wintertime and it’s made my life easier. […]
It’s all in my head.
After months of tooth pain but not being able to pinpoint where it’s coming from exactly, I went to the dentist this morning. I’ve never had a cavity, so this was like the walk of shame. They couldn’t find anything wrong. Nothing. In our (family friend) dentist’s words, “It’s all in my head. One way […]
Ellie’s New Hat
When I found a pattern for a winter hat for Ellie and I had the material I needed for it in my stash, I had to make it for her. Ellie… not so impressed. Winter hats are a distant memory, it would seem. I’m glad I can tie it on!
Review: Bunnies by the Bay
A few weeks ago, Matisse from Bunnies by the Bay contacted me regarding doing a review. I headed over to their website and was thrilled at the opportunity to pick something! After much perusing, I selected Lily Mae’s Buddy Blanket and the Bunny Cuddle Me Blanket and Burp Set. The blanket and burp set is […]
Sickies… #1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
It’s been a rough week. Pierce started with Hand, Foot, and Mouth first, then after a quiet few days that had me thinking all I’d read about only ages five and under getting it and not getting it twice (and Charlotte and Liberty have had it) was correct. That left only Ellie to be susceptible […]
Mr. P turns 3.
Last night as a two year old: Tomorrow, Pierce turns three. He has a good case of hand, foot, and mouth going on – but he’s starting to feel better if his energy level tonight was any indicator. Just in time for Miss Charlie to start vomiting. Two bugs. One house. Nine people. My sanity […]
TOS Review: Preschoolers and Peace
When a review through the Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Review Crew came up for Preschoolers and Peace, I was pretty excited. I’ve read other material by author Kendra Fletcher and really appreciated the perspective, so I had high expectations for her PDF Preschoolers and Peace: Homeschooling Older Kids with Success While Loving the Little Ones at Your […]
Perspective.
On the way to church this morning, we noticed a garage, barn, and workshop behind a house we drive past all the time had all burned to the ground. On the way home from church this afternoon, we stopped, introduced ourselves, and, in the end, ran home to change and eat quickly before heading back […]
