Valerie God Takes Care of the Birds....

We've been extra busy on our Homeschooling blog, and since this one has a Christian Lesson that you can use in your classroom as well, I figured I'd better post about it over here too! Last week we made these really neat Red Heart Robins, and worked on the lesson of God's love, and his gift of providing for us. If you want… Continue

maralena Dear Princess...

I have recently found a book called Dear Princess. And in just the first 2 chapters I found myself repenting of poutiness, selfishness, and envy! YIKES! And I was only proofreading to get started reading this to my oldest daughter. I called my husband to apalogize. He thinks I'm nuts! Oh well, the Lord knows my inner heart and Now I know to look for these little grape stealing foxes when they pop up! Praise the Lord for His tender mercies! I think I would like to try to make some sort of projec… Continue

MarineMama The Joys of Homeschooling

I'm so blessed to be able to not only stay at home with our 3 Blessings, but to also teach them at home! God and my Beloved are so WONDERFUL! I couldn't do it without either one of them!

It's so great to have him home and helping with our schooling! He is such a BLESSING, even when he doesn't know it… Continue

Heather Gifts for Chilren's Church

I am a Jr. Church teacher and an instructor in our kids program on Wednesday nights. I would like to get each child in my classes something small for Christmas. I am just wondering what other are doing that might inspire me. Last year they each got the Cookie in a Jar idea. Instead of using jars I put the different elements in ziploc bags and labeled them with numbers and then typed up the recipe using the coordinating numbers. I look forward to hearing ideas that others have. Thank you all in… Continue
