Tuesday, September 1, 2009 - Thank You So Much...
I want to thank you all so very much for all the lovely feedback you are leaving about the writing prompts calendar. I have been posting these just about every month for two years and it is really wonderful to hear from folks. It makes the extra effort so much worthwhile to know that they are useful and that it may bless someone. Just an FYI, I try to post these close to the end of the month or on the 1st of the month, mostly because I am so busy with other things. So please check back then. Or if you subscribe to my blog, I think you get an automatic update which will let you know when they are posted. Problem with that is you will also be getting notice of any other posts I make. I guess you can just ignore those. 
You can use either Feedburner or the Network Blogs things on my sidebar.
Again thank you all for responding to my request for feedback. Be blessed.

Tuesday, June 30, 2009 - How do YOU get your Kids to Read?
How do you get children who really don't like to read to read? I would love to incorporate a whole lot more reading of good literture into our studies in addition to the "have-to-reads", but both of my children would rather clean the bathroom than actually read a book. I've tried finding books that I knew they would enjoy, like Call of the Wild for my son and Hitty Her First 100 Years (which is one of my favorite books) for my daughter. My son really enjoyed Call of the Wild and started to read White Fang but gave up on that, and my daughter did not get past the first section.
We do incorporate unabridged audios of the classics into our life so I know they will at least know the story lines, but I wonder if that is the same as reading them?
I would love to hear how others deal with kids who just don't like to read.

Tuesday, April 14, 2009 - On A Blogging Vacation
There are so many things going on this week that I have decided to take a blogging vacation. Softball has begun, scouts is winding down with lots of trips planned and family is traveling over the next few weeks. So I'm setting my blogging self-commitment aside to take my own little break. Please don't abandon me. I shall return.

Wednesday, September 3, 2008 - Prayer Request
I just got a phone call from my mom about a dear friend. They have found that she may have colon cancer again. It was too long ago when they had removed a good bit of her colon due to cancer and now it may be back. She also has a heart condition and she stresses very easily. Please pray that she will have the strength to handle this situation and that she will be well. Thank you.

Thursday, July 10, 2008 - Virtual Homeschool Conference
Now here is one contest you don’t want to miss out on. Heidi at Reviews by Heidi has 5, count them, 5 tickets to the Heart of the Matter’s Online Homeschool Virtual Conference. I have really wanted to go to one of these conferences but have not been able to. This one will have some really wonderful speakers like Jeanie Fulbright, Sheila Wray Gregoire, Teri Johnson, and Amy Pak to name but a few. The best part of these virtual conferences, besides the ‘stay-at-home’ format, is that if you are unable to attend on the scheduled days, you can still listen to the speakers at your convenience. Go over to Heidi’s blog for all the details and enter for your chance to attend.

Monday, May 26, 2008 - Memorial Day Thank You
On this Memorial Day I want to send a huge thank-you out to the families whose loved ones paid the ultimate price for the love of their country. Our country was built upon the men and women who serve, protect and are willing to lay their lives down for others. For their bravery and sacrifice I am eternally grateful.
I wrote this and posted it last year.
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
