The Sweet Life...

Endless gifts

I've posted previously about my 1000 Things for which to be thankful here and here. However, I really slacked off in posting any more "things". Until now...I have been inspired yet again by Ann at Holy Experience. And so I have created my own homekeeping/gratitude journal.

If I can do this any one can. I challenge you to start your own "Endless List" or add to the one you've already started. Check out Ann's blog, drop her a line , and be added to the "Endless List" blogroll.

If we "...seek the things that are above" and " set our minds on things that are above and not on things that are on earth..."~ Colossians 3:1-2~ then we will be living indeed!

That IS it, isn't it? In giving thanks, we are keeping eyes fixed on Him, we are abiding in Him.

I learn much from you, friend.
You bless.

All's grace,
Ann

About Me

Just the simple thoughts on life, children, books, nature, and God (to name a few) of an imperfect Christian momma as she ventures forth in search of the Sweet Life...

Words to Ponder

The morning wind forever blows; the poem of the world is uninterrupted, but few are the ears that hear it. ~Thoreau

The writer studies literature not the world...He is careful what he reads, for that is what he will write. ~Annie Dillard

About our homeschool

First and foremost we strive to instill in our children a deep and abiding love of God and a saving faith in Christ Jesus. And toward that end we use a mixture of the Classical Christian and Charlotte Mason approaches to homeschooling. We place a high level of importance upon reading the bible and good literature, keeping away from twaddle as much as possible! We study Latin and Poetry, Shakespeare and Geography, Writing and Math and Science, too! We try to incorporate Nature Studies as much as time and Babycakes will allow. And we study history in a 4-year cycle, repeating each time period (Ancients, Middle ages/Renaissance & Reformation, Colonial/Early American History, Modern) 3 times over the course of 12 years. We try to allow our children the time to really explore what interests them and time to just be kids.
