I have to share a wonderful verse I found today that goes along with yesterday's blog so well.... "Hatred stirs up dissention, but love covers all wrong." Proverbs 10:12 . It came like one of those "tuck in's" we give the kids right after our prayers and right before light's out. =] All warm and snuggly and ready for a good night's rest.

Hi! My name is Deborah, and I want to thank you for taking a moment out of your busy day to visit Home For Him. I hope in some small way that you find encouragement and ideas for not only your homeschooling experience, but also your walk with God. I live in Kentucky with my Honey of 17 years, our three adventureous kids, and our small zoo of two dogs, a cat, a bird and three reptiles. Together, we have a heart for serving, and a love for studying God's Word and learning about His creation. Welcome to our world!
