    ~ Show and Tell Friday~ Canadian Thanksgiving. ~

    Happy Show and Tell Friday.  I am feeling under the weather but I wanted Show and Tell Friday to continue on.  I want to wish you a early Happy Canadian Thanksgiving. ( It is celebrated on Monday)  The history is different up here than in the U.S.A.  To find out the history please follow these links.

    HERE and HERE

     

    Now....

    *** Remember in Show and Tell Friday ...the best way to get a comment is to give a comment. ***

    If you want to join us

    just...

    ~Make a Show and Tell Post and make sure it is wholesome.   It can be pretty much what ever you want to share.  It could be about you ...or your family ....or what is going on in your homeschooling.

    ~Some how link me ( Canadagirl ) so others will know where to go to join S&T.

    ~Come back to me and  let me know you posted your S&T by using Mr. Linky. ( I need you  to tell me each week that you want to participate  , okay ? )

    ~If you want the S&T button to put on your blog go HERE

    ~Then , 
    please go visit other gals wonderful Show and Tells !

     

     

     

     



    "If mothers could learn to do for themselves what they do for their children when these are overdone, we should have happier households. Let the mother go out to play! If she would have the courage to let everything go when life becomes too tense, and just take a day, or half a day, out in the fields, or with a favourite book, or in a picture gallery looking long and well at just two or three pictures, or in bed, without the children, life would go on far more happily for both children and parents. The mother would then be able to hold herself in "wise passiveness’ and would not fret her children by continual interference even of hand or eye - she would let them be." ...Charlotte Mason

    Sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I just wanted to let you know that we are doing SO MUCH better. We have finally got it together. I think I may have figure out part of the problem other then having to detox from TV, which id DONE!!! She is one of those children that needs her sleep if not it makes it hard for her to handle her emotions. Any way we started to let her read until she fell asleep, I all of a sudden realized that some nights that was a lot of reading, so I told her that we had to start using the timer and that she got 10 minutes, and then the light would be turned off. It took a few nights but it is working great and so then school is going great and the TV isn't ruling our lives any more, and I don't feel so alone.....
    Thanks for reaching out.

    I hope your feeling better, Mary. I've been feeling pretty lousy, too, this weekend. Hopefully, by Monday morning we'll both be as good as new.

    I hope you have some pictures to share of your Canadian Thanksgiving!

    Handsome and Me




    First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 19 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 17, 15, 11, and 9. 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. 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 on The House That God Built 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. This blog is the home of Show and Tell Friday's and Tightwad Tuesdays. I hope you decide to join in on the fun ! Blessings and ((HUGS)) In Him<>< -Mary
