We are nearly ready to embark on our journey around the world! It's funny how excited I am about our homeschooling unit plans for the coming months! :) For the first week, we will be reading A Child's Geography's first chapter along with having some discussions about the WHOLE world...not really focusing in on our first continent, Africa, until week 2. Our Bible time for the week will revolve around John 3:16 and Acts 4:24. Sometimes we memorize these verses and say them so often (or hear ... Read More about World Tour ~ Week 1
God and evil?
Have you ever wondered why there is evil in the world? If God is sovereign...and God is good, why is there evil? What is the connection, if any, to God and evil? If you are like me, you have wondered these same things. That is why I'm really enjoying reading the book Spectacular Sins ~ and their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ by John Piper.

Camping is a lot of work: packing, setting up, food for the weekend, tearing down, packing again, heading home...not to mention 3 very tired, cranky and irritable kids after 2 nights of little sleep!But, I know my kids LOVE it.

After time! We also ... Read More about Memorial Day Camping!

Galations 1:10 Yesterday the Lord showed me something about myself. Something ugly. He showed me that more often than I would care to admit, I have been seeking the approval of man and seeking to please man rather than trying to please God. Ouch. Now, this may be an old lesson for some...and I have probably been shown these things in ... Read More about I am rich
