Wife to a wonderful and humerous computer geek, I stay at home with our five children (11, 9.5, 6.5, 4.5 & 20m)and homeschool in the classical & slightly CM style. I love the Lord Jesus and am glad to be used by Him to train up my little blessings in His truth. God has given me organizational skills and a great enjoyment of music and the outdoors. I love to scrapbook any time I possibly can (24/7 if I could)!
This blog is a place for me to post thoughts and plans about our journey in educating our children. I hope also that it will serve to remind myself and others of the blessings of raising & educating our children. For this reason, we have named our homeschool after Psalm 127:3. Our prayer is that our home may be a place of living for Christ, learning to follow Him and growing a legacy of His truth that spans many generations! May I never forget in the tough days, that I am a steward to the most beautiful gift that God could give us - children!
Considering how I am botching/missing/not.tracking.in.any.way all of our poor little fifth child's milestones, I thought I should step out of my JC*Pennys rut and give the beautiful girl a proper photo shoot. At least!
And what a great shoot it was, with a wonderful friend to capture her curious ways at a nearby beautiful farm property! Thanks to Sally Belle Photography!
So nice to get an update on your beautiful family! I can't even imagine how you keep up with it all -- I have a hard enough time just homeschooling two! : )
You had left a comment on my blog about connecting with each other via FB, and I never got back to you about that. I'm not currently on FB, but will be soon because we're letting our oldest get an account. So as soon as I'm set up I'll look you up. But I'm not sure I'll be much better at FB than blogging! : P
Kellie, Nice to hear from you! I haven't had time to even lurk on many of my favorite blogs, but I try to see how things are going with you at the Blue House! I am on FB because it's faster for me to check in w/ peeps than blogging & thus doesn't have to take as much of my time (note that I said doesn't "HAVE" to! I try to be careful not to waste time there!) Look me up at Andrea Perry Calkins if you sign up!
