Leave room for God

I encourage you to find the balance for your family if it seems like your days are filled with too much uncertainty and stress.  Structure is important, just remember to leave room for God.

Do we plan every minute out, or get up in the morning and see where the day takes us?  I will tell you that my natural inclination would be the later.  I am that artsy free spirit, an adult with ADD if you will. I think that by getting up without a plan, I am living by faith.

The habit of the table

Eating together as a family is a very important part of being a family. Maybe we should look at it as an honor to gather around the table. God himself is preparing a table at which we will gather one day. Let us build the habit of the table.

Home Economics, Updated

This year, I’m down to one student in our family homeschool.  Along the way, I have made changes, tweaking each child’s education, finding improved curricula for math or science, adding special projects to English and history, and incorporating electives for each child’s interest. With my youngest that meant adding a home economics class. So here is home economics updated. Home Economics Updated As I searched

The Great Christmas Breakfast Debate

When I was a kid, every Christmas morning my mom would make a huge batch of hot cocoa and a towering pile of buttered toast. And that was breakfast. Cocoa and toast. Simple, but I loved it.

Little Moments
