Sick by Rachel If you would like a template, please see my blogs on my profile. Posted in: agh Hey guys. It's me. I'm sick with a fever/cold. I'm not really sure which. I'm coughing, sniffing, my stomach is wobbling, my head is splitting;I basically have everything you could think of. Oh, and sneezing. Did I mention that I'm feeling miserable? Hm...I'm not really sure what else to talk about. Why can I never think of anything? And I don't think I have any pics to show you... Ooo! I know! I can fill out this tag that I got from salazar! 1) How old are you? 11... (more)
Na jaren thuisonderwijs ... by Levenswijs ... horen we bij de bakker en andere winkels in de omgeving niet meer dé vraag: "Moet je niet naar school? ... blijft je boekenbudget toch nog altijd hoger dan je energiebudget. ... hou je de uitleentermijn van je boeken goed bij op de kalender - die hevige boete overkomt je maar één keer! ... kennen alle bibliotheekmedewerkers jou en je kinderen. ... kent ook de dichtsbijzijnde kantoorboekhandel inmiddels jouw keuze en gebruik. ... zoek je nog altijd naar een nieuwe - betere - dagindeling. ... vergeten je kinderen dat er ook nog kinderen zijn die naar school toe gaan. ... heb je die noodzakelijke steun van andere...

MFW Exp1850 by Homeschooling6 I was able to purchase MFW Exp1850. I'm so glad, now I can figure out what to do next year. I am going to read Building a City on the Hill & Trial and Triumph with Josh. An idea would be to have Josh read; The Last 500 Years, Exploring American History, In God We Trust & George Washington's World on his own. We have the audio cd for Story of the World so we can listen to that. He can also read the read aloud selection from MFW on his own too. I can read all the 2nd/3rd grade supplements along with the two... (more)

by Lauren It has been pretty busy 'round here. This past week we were trying to finish up school for the rest of this semester. (Long story short...we take six weeks off during the winter and a shorter summer break.) Andrew will have to work on school next week because he didn't finish it last week. We are all ready for a break. So, no more school until after New Year's. Yeah! Friday we had homeschool co-op day. We won't be having it again until after New Year's. I'll miss it, but it'll be nice to have a break. After co-op David and I went... (more)
Good Steward Saturday- Thankfulness by KLM With this week being Thanksgiving, it seemed appropriate to write about being thankful, but how does that tie in with being a good steward? 1) Making a list of things you're grateful for makes you realize how much that you have. During the next few weeks the emphasis will be on getting new things. Realizing just how much we have may help to curb the MErry Christmas syndrome and help us to focus on the real meaning of CHRISTmas. 2) Making a list of your blessings can lighten your mood when you're feeling low. This pick-me-up is a lot cheaper... (more)

Orlando Bloom: Legolas by Frodo Baggins This is an interview of Orlando Bloom about Legolas, I got it out of one of my books: "When I think of Legolas," says Orlando Bloom, "I think of a cat. You know how a cat will hop up on a table and just suddenly top with no forward motion, staying absolutely still and alert? Cats never look stiff or heavy, they are graceful and poised, but always switch-on. That's Legolas." Bloom decided that he wanted to act when he was still a schoolboy: "There was a girl in my class whom all the guys had a crush on.... (more)

Confessions of an eclectic homeschooler.. by Michele Okay, I admit it. I am not the faithful type where homeschooling methods are concerned. I take bits and pieces from ANYTHING I think will be fun and engaging for the kids. This has lead me to tweak my homeschool approach a few times a year. Now, this definitely has pros and cons. The best thing about learning so many different homeschooling methods and using them is that you really can "tailor" your child’s education to suit their learning styles, needs, and interests. I started with a mix of What Your _ Needs To Know books and Classical. My child... (more)
All we have to do is crawl under the kitchen table by christinethecurious This week my dishwasher broke, and it turns out that I broke it (so don't be like me- rise or scrape your plates really well!) and so we paid the landlord for the new dishwasher. In addition to breaking the dish washer, the day he delivered it was the day I left the mess in the kitchen so we could visit the used kids clothing store/Target and grocery store before K's nap time, so he REALLY noticed the state of the kitchen floor while he was lying down installing the new dishwasher. I've mentioned before that I hate criticism? Especially when... (more)
I'm Alone!! (Except for the Dog...) by Jane When the kids were younger and we decided to homeschool them I always worried about them having friends. I need not have worried too much! Yesterday our homeschool group had its Thanksgiving Party and they got to hang out with a great group of kids for several hours. Matt spent the rest of the afternoon with his good friend Quinn while Quinn's little sister came to our house to play with Hailey. Today we were no more than out of bed when our former neighbor Ernie appeared at the back door (his dad was working at their old apartment) and wanted to play with Hailey... (more)

The whole experience was great! The contractor was super GREAT! The workers were great! The project came in $600 under the proposal so we had some additional work done. Our contractor went out of his way to get us deals. He went two counties away to get us bamboo floors that were sitting in a barn~the leftovers of a business that had gone under. We got them for $1 a linear foot... They retailed for over... (more)

Family Night by Morgan Hey everybody! Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. School has been a little tough. This week was our last week of school before Christmas break. Yesterday we went to homeschool co-op. We did a skit in drama class and in art class we drew a blanket with a jar and rolling pin on it. Then, later that day, we went to the Moore's house for family night. We ate chilli, played capture the flag, and had a wonderful time. The Moores are just a wonderful, Christian family and I love every one of them. Next Wednesday our grandmother is coming up for Thanksgiving. I can't... (more)
What kind of mother? by Cappuccinosmom If you saw us today and thought "What kind of mother makes her toddler walk half-way around a huge lake in wet clothes and a stinky diaper?"...this would be my answer: The kind of mother who feels terrible about the fact that her son's pants and boots are soaking wet and probably very cold. The kind of mother who's son walked the first half of the lake dry and warm, and then disobeyed her and sat down in a stream at the exact mid-point of the hike so that she couldn't simply run him back to the car to change him. The kind of... (more)
Combining Phys. Ed. and Math? by Lori Lynn I had a girlfriend years ago that was attempting to homeschool her four young boys. They were like little stair-steps going from age 11 to 5. One of her sons had a lot of energy. Now, here's a little secret about me, I don't believe that all the children diagnosed with ADHD really have ADHD. But this little friend of mine had her oldest son tested and he was ADHD. Since she wanted to avoid medication, she got some tips from the experts and one was to put a mini-trampoline, or an exercise bike right where they did their schooling. ... (more)

Workboxing with Charlotte Mason? by Michele As my little princess approaches (Gasp!) kindergarten age, I am reveiwing my teaching techniques and rethinking things. I made mistakes with my son, as he was the homeschool guinea pig. Many of the teaching methods I used with him just will not fit with my attention span deprived daughter. My son would give me a solid 10-15 minutes of focus at her age. I am lucky to get her for 5 minutes. So, I am wondering if anyone has had success with workboxes and Charlotte Mason Education? I love a lot of Charlotte Mason's views and methods. I see Charlotte Mason... (more)
Recovery and Another Surgery by Rebecca Jude's is doing wonderfully after yesterday's surgery. He has been unhooked from everything with just a IV line in his foot (it is buff capped-meaning it's not in use but is functional). It is looking like we'll be going home as early as Monday. BUT he will be having another surgery this afternoon. He has his medi-port in from chemo still. We had left it in so they could use it to run IV's for the surgeries. But it has now clotted off so it needs to come out. The timing actually couldn't be more perfect since all his surgeries... (more)

Doing Some Research -- Can You Help? by MaggieRaye I'm doing some research and I could use your help. If you are a single, homeschooling parent and you are a part of a church that is supporting you in this, would you share how they do it? What does the local body of believers around you do to help you remain at home training up your children? If you are a church leader (pastor, elder, deacon) and your church is actively supporting one or more single moms to homeschool their children how do you do it? What are you doing to help them? How does it work? Several years ago, I... (more)

Hunting by Emily We came home from Oregon 3 weeks ago, and we stayed home for 1 day, then us older kids and Dad went to the mountains to go kill off some deer so we can have meat for the rest of the year.

When Firsts Become Lasts by Wendy Being a mother entails being the keeper of many “firsts”. Ask any young mother when their baby got their first tooth, and you will likely get a rapid response. On the contrary, ask a father, and he will likely answer, “The baby has a tooth?” For some reason, God has made mothers the keepers of such memories. We notice every first our children accomplish, from their first steps to the time they read those first few words from a book. Many of us faithfully record these instances in baby books and scrapbooks, preserving the memories for the future (at least... (more)

"My Mother's Prayer" by hymnstudies "MY MOTHER'S PRAYER" "Her children arise up, and call her blessed" (Prov. 31:28) INTRO.: A song which encourages children to rise up and call their mother blessed is "My Mother's Prayer." The text was written by Judson Wheeler VanDeVenter (1855-1939). The tune was composed by Winfield Scott Weeden (1847-1908). The song was copyrighted in 1895 by Weeden and VanDeVenter. VanDeVenter was an evangelistic preacher, and Weeden served as his song director. The two collaborated on several songs, including the well known "I Surrender All" beginning "All to Jesus I surrender," and "Sunlight" beginning "I wandered in the shades of night." Among... (more)

She found her locker but it wouldn’t open and so she would have to carry her books around with her. She started toward her first class. She was walking by a boy around 15 when he stuck his foot out and... (more)
"My Mother's Bible" by hymnstudies “MY MOTHER’S BIBLE” “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away” (Matt. 24:35) INTRO.: A song which emphasizes the eternal nature of the words of Jesus as recorded in the Scriptures is “My Mother's Bible.” The text was written by Milan Bertrand Williams, who was evidently a preacher of some sort since in some books he is identified as “Evangelist M. B. Williams.” A book entitled Record of Christian Work, Volume 14 edited by Alexander McConnell, William Revell Moody, and Arthur Percy Fitt contains the following item. “We have just closed a remarkable series of revival...

Please Pray... by weheartmusic Howdy! I hope you are all doing well! But, I have a pretty big prayer request... My 2 older brothers have been sick; one of them, Ethan [18], got better for a day or two but then got sick again. My mom says he probably has bronchitis. :( Well, this morning, he got up and was all light-headed. Then, he got dizzy and passed out and fell! But nobody was near him... :( Well, when he fell, he gashed his eye on something and (we're guessing) fell back from the impact and hit his head on something else! All in all, he has a cut above his eye, a bloody... (more)
"Make Today Your Best Day" by hymnstudies “MAKE TODAY YOUR BEST DAY” “Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear His voice)” (Heb. 3:7) INTRO.: A song which encourages us to hear the voice of the Lord today is “Make Today Your Best Day.” The text was written by N. A. McAuly, which is most likely the same as Neal A. McAulay (also sometimes spelled McCauley), who was born in 1854. From 1886 to 1907, he was minister with the First Presbyterian Church in Wilton, IA. Cyberhymnal lists three other hymns by him, “How Could it Be,” “I Love the Gospel Story,” and “The... (more)
Rebekah -- A Worthy Woman by defenderoftruth Gleanings From Genesis: REBEKAH -- A WORTHY WOMAN (Genesis 24:15-67) by Wayne S. Walker Most Bible students know the story of the birth of Isaac. God had promised it and it occurred miraculously when Abraham was about 100 and Sarah 90. After many years, Sarah died, Abraham became old, and Isaac needed a wife. Since Abraham did not want Isaac to marry into the heathen tribes round about them, he sent his servant back to his family in Haran to find his son a mate. The girl he found was named Rebekah, and this is basically where we pick... (more)
The Faith of Abraham by defenderoftruth Gleanings From Genesis: THE FAITH OF ABRAHAM (Genesis 15:1-6) by Wayne S. Walker One of the greatest heroes of all the Bible is Abraham. While he made his share of mistakes, the general trend of his life was that of faithfulness to God and, as a result, he is referred to as the friend of God. In this article, we shall notice a statement made about Abraham in Genesis 15:1-6. This particular event follows a number of things that might have given Abraham occasion to be apprehensive. He had been called to leave the comfort of his homeland to... (more)

I Miss Him! by SuperAngel This past week has been extremely hard for me. I lost my Great Grandpa, who I was very very close to. I can honestly say that he was THE best grandpa I've ever had. I am so thankful for the last 5 years of being able to grow closer to him, of course, it wasn't as long as I wanted, but I am very glad I had them. It was wonderful! It was wonderful to grow as close to him as I did. Over the past 5 years, he really opened up to me about... (more)

Little ballerinas by Foxvalleyfamily This was a very exciting week for Katie-Noel and Annabelle. It was "parent observation week" at ballet class! At the end of their class, the parents were called into the classroom to see all that the girls have learned up until this point. They even put on a 'mini-recital.' It was SO cute! Of course...this would have to be the week that we forgot their shoes.... I love my ballerina girls! ... (more)

New Moon by Dawn Well, we went to see New Moon last night and I really wish I hadn't. I mean, to spend all that money and deal with that huge crowd of people and the screaming fans was just crazy. I mean, seriously, people would scream out at the movie screen when certain people would show. It was crazy. I felt like saying, "People it is a movie, they really aren't here, it is just a screen." I will definitely be getting my movies from the redbox from now on. I mean, the entire movie was packed out! It was just a bit too... (more)

Hmmmm? by jenny I was just checking out the Humanist website link, that someone passed on. In bold letters down the middle of the page, it stated; "There's probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life." Probably? So, they can't say for sure. It reminded me of Pascal's wager, when he said that he couldn't lose by being right with God. It seems they are launching a very scathing and intolerant mission. Their aim is to have creationism banned and faith schools stopped. They say they are fed up with children being indoctrinated! Hang on a minute, just what are they doing with... (more)

Life's Little Pleasures by Luv2HomeSchool It is nice to be the only one awake! The baby awoke at 7ish which is normal. She was happy and joyful, a good way to start off the morning. I poured a cup of coffee, (which is my little pleasure) and put her in the swing and as I am eating my breakfast she goes back to bed....aaahhh, how nice! My hubby and older daughter have a fun Friday night tradition. He pulls out her mattress (full size) and puts it in the living room and they stay up as late as she can and watch movies all night....

Treasures by Tonyaponders Here’s some of the treasures that were added to my heart box this week: A blond, freckled faced, gapped toothed seven year old snuggling up to me and saying, “ Moma, I love you more than anything else in the world, except God.” My maturing 12 year old coming to my bedroom at night, unprompted, to apologize for not being as attentive as she could’ve been, when I hadn’t even noticed it that day! The snuggly seven year asking, “Moma, where you round like me when you were little?” then, “But, I don’t want to be round when I grow up!” Well, it was... (more)

I just found this lovely blog, called Oodlekadoodle Primitives. It's written by a tech-savvy great-grandmother who lives down the road from me in Faribault, MN.

Desk by Nicole Hi guys. How are you? Man, I had the hell of a day. (did that make sense?) So I'm just sitting here listening to my iPod. The song I'm listening to is ''It's a hard knocked life" by Annie, you know the movie? For some reason, it makes me feel like I've gone back in time, lol. Doesn't that sound weird? Anyway, I woke up at 8.30am this morning, and I couldn't come on here to see if I had any comments or go on FB to see if anyone was on, because my mum came in and told me that... (more)
Mendell Moments! by RKJ Mendell's hair has grown long enough to french braid! I never realized how time consuming putting two little braids in could be.

Rock! by Jenne I got a rock! For real. And I am happy about it too. I have played Neopets for a long time. I checked it out years ago to see if it was a reasonable place for Amanda to be online. It was. She is. And I kind of never stopped playing. They have been running a plot, a kind of multiplayer story for the past week or so and today I received a rock in one of the games. I received a muffin too, but somehow the rock is more exciting. Anyway, happy me. Tomorrow morning we head south to the lower... (more)
The War Is Beginning by Sarah Cambell ~Sarah and The Characters~ I widened my eyes and stared at Wario. "Ok,Ok,as long as you stop sufficating me!" He made an o with his mouth,then let my shoulders go. I shrugged and got up. "What's the problem?" I asked,but Coco quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me off to the door. "NO TIME FOR QUESTIONS!! WE'VE GOTTA GET!!" -- They took me atop our tower and we looked about. It was a pretty sunset,which made the scenary quite nice,but I had no time to enjoy it as Twilight (The Owl) forced my head to the ground with his large wings. "Sephiroth has... (more)

Is There Pee in Your Tea? by MomWtrmn I know it's a disgusting title, but bear with me. I've been watching Todd Friel's "Wretched" for a couple weeks now. Let's see if I can work my way through his "process" with you, my friend - whoever you may be reading this right now. Let me ask you a question. Do you consider yourself to be a good person? (Typical answer is, "Yeah, I'm pretty good. I mean, I'm not perfect, no one is, but I think I'm mostly good. So, yeah, I'm a good person.") Okay, then. Do good people go to heaven? (Typical answer is, "Yeah. Like,... (more)
Thanksgiving Fun by LeslieN What I would love to be able to write is what a sweet fun time we had today making this craft. I don't do crafts all that often and the boys typically really like doing them. I was looking forward to them having fun with this activity. I would like to say that we enjoyed laughter while we talked about turkeys and the day of giving thanks. I would like to say that everyone was happy and cooperative while we were working. Instead though, I'll tell you what really happened. We waited until the end of the day to do this craft. (That... (more)
Unexpected Company by Psalm40 Have you ever been in your jammies, donning a big fluffy purple robe with a shower cap on your Listerine dowsed hair, only to have your husband walk in the room to say there are 2 people at your house to see you? By the way, it's a school day and 1 pm in this questioned scenario. No? Me neither, but I can imagine it going something like this... Wife: "Who is it?!". Husband laughing: "I don't know." Wife, horrified at her smell and sight: "Well, get rid of them!" Husband in hysterics as wife drops to the floor to hide behind the kitchen island, exclaiming, "Tell them... (more)

The No Poo Challenge Update - Week 7 by My Kids' Mom The No Poo Challenge Update! To view the previous posts, click HERE. It has been seven weeks since I "gave up" shampoo and conditioner. Last week my hair was so drab and un-shiny that I couldn't stand it any longer and added another natural remedy...egg. Yep, I rinsed my hair with a whole egg mixed in lemon juice and water. It was a pretty weird feeling but did the trick, and my hair was shiny again! I ignored the advice about not using lemon juice on hair that is not blond (I have quite dark brown hair), and since then the kids have commented several times that my hair is... (more)
