"Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored." Titus 2:3-5 (NASB)

As I look out the window that's next to my desk, I see overcast skies. I haven't watched the weather on the news today to see what kind of weather is forecasted. However, it looks like it just might be a cloudy day. Temperatures were supposed to reach around 50 yesterday but it certainly didn't feel like it got that high. I love the cooler temperatures. I am looking forward to seeing some real snow this winter - not just a dusting here and there - but REALLY SERIOUS snow! I'd love to have a good snow of 6 inches or more! Okay - some people may think that's just crazy - but I'm telling you....this girl loves snow!!!! That is as long as I don't have to get out and drive in it. And that's the blessing of being a stay at home, homeschooling mom! For the most part, I can mold our schedule around things like snow. We can even take a snow break from school so the children can get out and play in it and build snowmen and make snow angels. Oh the memories.......I can remember making snow angels and snow men when I was a child. A couple of years ago where we used to live, there was a pretty good snow. The children got out and built snow forts. We were staying with somebody at that time and she had some kittens. The kittens would sniff around the snow forts and creep over next to them. I think they even went inside. It was so cute! And the children loved it!
I'm ready for the snow!
"Oh the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful. But since we've no place to go.....LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!"

The ultimate goal of Christian home education is to train children to impact the world for God. We want our children to not only hear and learn God's Word, but also be doers of God's Word. Therefore, we strive to teach them:
SERVICE - How to serve God and others
ACHIEVEMENT - To do the best they can in all they do from academic subjects to chores to serving others and more
LOVE - To love God and one another
TRUTH - To live their lives based on the absolute Truth of God
The name of this blog is the acronym for these four areas that we strive to teach our children:
S.A.L.T. - Service, Achievement, Love, Truth
