ROTFL! I too have found my mug in the bathroom or other strange places! I've been known to call out "Has anyone seen my coffee?" and I find it later in the day, cold!!

Please come by my homeschool blog and check out something I am doing for my little girl's baby book and my journal. I'm asking all those who have prayed for me and my baby to post a comment simply stating what state (or country if it's a different country than the U.S.) that they live in. Please come by and see the details.

Here's the link the my homeschool blog:

Very good. Jenn did it, and I know I couldn't come up with any other J's, so I never tired. Yours turned out nice though. :)

I have seen your name so many different places, but have never come by to say hello. I'm so glad I did. You have a delightful blog! :) I may have to jump into some of your "fun things". I'm definately NOT in Canada, but I am endeavoring to raise Godly Boys - Five to be exact (one little princess thrown in to make it interesting)

I read about your boys and the BC Winter games - But I have to ask, what is that? And what is curling?

I have looked at Heart of Wisdom probably half a dozen times and wavered. How do you like it? How does it seem to work with your boys? - I have a few who are highly allergic to writing.

I'm sure I'll be by again~
Cindy

This tag is totally unfair to those of us whose name starts with J... impossible even! Let's see jump, Jeep, Juneau, John, Joy, Juno (Have you seen this? I admit; I have not. But from the spoilers I have read, it seems to dump on teenage mothers, birth mothers, adoptive mothers... and treats the child as a nuisance to be gotten rid of so that one can move on with life and presents adoption from all its worst sides. It is being targeted at teen girls... unreal!), janitor, jewelry, Jewel, jelly beans, juicer, for things in the bathroom, I will have to say, "john," jam (as in traffic), (Tom and) Jerry, Joy!, jaguar, joint and...

jubilant!

I finished...

Edited to add ~ Oh, I don't really shout anything. Much too dignified. ;o)

I was doing this earlier today with my son and daughter. Some of the answers we came up with were hilarious. My son is going to put our answers on his blog tomorrow.

I did it a few days ago, actually!

I'll not have a S&T this week... Friday just kind of snuck up on me and I couldn't think of anything to do. :-/ Next week I hope to have one, but I have my first history exam... (scary...)

Blessings and a good night to you,
~Jen

ETA: You are definitely marvelous, dear Mary! :-)

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 10, and 8. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
