Pierce really likes this pie. We all do, actually. It’s been requested for many a birthday in recent years, including Liberty’s last month. Photo Credit But mine doesn’t look like that. It wasn’t even close to photo worthy. I’m not that good. But it tastes fantastic, so […]

TOS Review: Classical Conversations PreScripts
As part of the Old Schoolhouse Review Crew, I have received one copy of Classical Conversations’ PreScripts Cursive Words and Drawing: Scripture spiral bound book for ages 5-10. I’ve had Liberty, age 9, and Eden, age 8, using it. Since I wanted both girls to do it, I’ve had them work on separate paper, but […]

Yesterday during the worship service at church Charlie thrust her little finger in the air and said, “THAT came out of MY NOSE!” Watch me sink into the pew just a bit and pretend that didn’t just happen. Pierce is fully pee-trained. It’s going fabulously. (Well, except for when Daddy gave him chocolate milk and […]

From the mouths of…
Last night, as I walked the halls of the church where the kids have been attending VBS, I overheard the following conversation: Older gentleman: “How are you?” Five(ish) little girl: “Em-barr-assed.” Older gentleman: “Aww, why?” Five(ish) little girl: “I passed gas.” Older gentleman, after a moment of silence during which I can only assume, not […]
