Congrats To Your Graduation, Eyebright!

This is a blog post to honor one of our HomeschoolBlogger Class of 2008 Graduates: Eyebright of Defective Compositions.

I like Micah 6:8 because it is a reminder to me that as homeschool graduates we are at this busy time in our lives when so many people are watching us with high expectations - and perhaps we have some high expectations for ourselves - but ultimately, all that really matters eternally is having a willing heart to serve the LORD.

I appreciate Eyebright's unique and entertaining blog ("Defective Compositions" is a clever title!) and am glad to be one of her (many) blogging acquaintances.

Congratulations, Eyebright!

Keep in touch -

~Amanda~

Thank you Amanda! That is a good verse, and it is a good reminder that we are not to please ourselves or this world, but the Lord.

Have a very bright, very cheerful day!

About Amanda Read

You may simply call me a writer, the eldest of the 8 (going on 9) Read children – many of which you will find roaming about the blogosphere. A 19 year old Christian homeschool graduate, I have been Classically educated through the teaching principles of Charlotte Mason. I have been a military child ever since I can remember, toured the nation and the world, and upon my father’s retirement from the U.S. Army, my family and I have been shaping our new land into a homestead known as Fair Hills Farm. In 2004, my mother discovered the fascinating history of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley and the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. After years of researching and writing, I completed a full length historical drama screenplay titled The Crusading Chemist in March 2008 and recently completed a revision of it. I am now a college student majoring in History and minoring in Political Science at Jacksonville State University and in between studying, working on literary and art projects and living big family farm life I hope to maintain a quest for truthful research through Luke Historians and Not Just An Opinion. My constant prayer is to glorify the LORD far beyond my finite imagination! Blogging Since: January 2006
