Homeschool Helps

Yeah, you probably thought I was sleeping for the past 2 days after being up so late, er, early with Caleb the other night, right? I can only dream of such things.
Matt and I have decided (actually it was me) that we are all going to be getting up at 6ish in the am. Well, trying to anyway. So, today, I was awakened at 6:30 - well, a couple of times. I actually got up at 7. I had a pretty filled day, actually, and you can read all about it at my Homestead blog!
Amanda and I ended our work this evening by (again) driving into town to hook up on wireless, so I can get more of the free gifts/EBooks I got when I took part in the Estes Benefit last month. I am loving all of the free EBooks, and I can't wait to use them. If you missed it - or if you just want to support another homeschool family in need, there is another benefit you can take part in for
Tammy Cardwell, author, publisher, speaker and volunteer editor of Eclectic Homeschool Online, and also receive a bunch of great freebies that you can look at on the Benefit Site, if you wish.
I am posting here to ask you a simple question: Do you get The Homeschool Minute? Do you read it when you do? I try to. I sure am happy I did when I finally do.

So, I just got around to reading the last 3 of them:
Dealing With Critics,
Chores, and
Lesson Planning
There are some really fantastic tips, a little bit of humor and a lot of camaraderie. You can also count on freebies. Julie Nott always has plenty of freebies listed, and this is one I am looking forward to using: www.Home-School-Inc.com. They have a FREE way to get your plans all in one place!
If you are interested in looking at The Homeschool Minute Archives, you can see how good they are for yourself!
Well, I really wantedto put some of my favorite parts of THM, but, as you can see, it is again, pretty late... early here, so I'd better hit the hay!

Blessings!
-Jacque

Yay! I'm first to comment!
LOL, thanks for your comment!

Yeah, you guys need to find a reason to come on down.
Are you guys going to be at that camp out thing?

Ah, Lucy is so cute. And man, she is getting big fast.

Hope to see you guys soon.

I'm stealing this from the comment(s) I left you...
Yes, Paulie... it's a lot easier to be my first commenter than Amanda's or Jocelyn's - or even yours or Eric's!
And, thank you. I like the Saturday Psalm & Praise banner, too. Mrs. Nancy sent me the picture, and I added the words. I thought it was simple, but elegant (?). It means a lot coming from you to hear that you like it!
You, the girls and Eric make such nice, spiffy banners!

Glad to hear from you... I began to wonder if maybe you really did move to Timbuktu! Don't know... do they build straw bale houses in Timbuktu?? (Your Momma offered your services to help build if we ever build one!)

And, Did you know that LucyLillie is now 4 months old???
You guys missed it.... She is starting to scoot... she knows her name, and she talks and laughs out-loud (you already knew that). She is holding toys and playing with them, too.
And she loves to be outside!
Oh, and she sings with you, too...

But, I didn't ask you this:
I hear you cook a killer meal... (roast beef, potatoes, carrots, very pretty salad, etc.) We'll be down asap. What's for dinner? Or, maybe next time you guys come, you can do dinner here!
yummmmmmmmmmmmm.

Ha ha, LOL! I'm not so sure I could build a house of straw.
:D

Yeah, it's a very simple elegant banner.

Thanks for your comment!

I'm doing so well on HSGold!

Hello again, Auntie Agent Momma 2.
:D
Wow, FOUR months!
Ah, man, she is such a little doll!

Yeah I cooked din din last night.
The Roast was a bit dry but it had a nice wine taste! YUM!
*ahem*

Very cooked wine.
;)

Yeah, come on down and I'll cook wine chicken!

Yummers!

:D

Have a great day!
