like mother, like daughter

November 12, 2010

Do you hear that a lot? like mother, like daughter? I do. And I don’t always see it. But every once in a while, something catches me by surprise and I do understand how my girls look or act or sound a little like me. Here is a recent picture of Baylee and Me. The […]

What one homeschool morning looked like….

November 5, 2010

Library trip. Great children’s Librarian…. came home with several good “boy” books. Next morning I am on the computer and this is what Ron says. “Mom, where are all those tin cans we used for dinner?” “In the recycling, Ron….WHY?” “Oh, I am making a knife.” “Okay, Ron. Be careful. Don’t cut yourself. Let me […]

I am thankful for children who pray

November 2, 2010

I am thankful for children who pray. Sunday at church our pastor gave everyone an opportunity to come to the altar to ask God for anything on your heart. To just talk to God about anything you needed to or lift someone up. Kiley was sitting next to me. Tug. Tug. “Mom. I want to […]

In the last two days I have been reading four blogs. The dialog in the comments on some has been interesting, the topics relevant to me and I have been blessed by a serendipitous meeting of another homeschool mom on top of Water Rock Knob. Isn’t it neat how God puts people in our lives? […]

We want our own Cloud!

October 20, 2010

We want our own cloud. We have been sleeping on a mattress that we thought was answer to my hip problems several years ago. But it is not. Fadra is giving away a Tempur-Pedic mattress on her blog in conjunction with the Tempur-Pedic company.  Our family has made a video for this contest. I thought I would […]

Women of Faith

October 14, 2010

What does it mean to be a Woman of Faith? The Women of Faith conference is coming to North Carolina in November and I am going. It makes me think…for me, what does it mean to be a woman of faith? I asked Jesus into my heart when I was 5. Before then, I grew […]

Life changes.

October 7, 2010

Life changes. Sometimes so fast it makes our heads spin. And as a mom, sometimes I get so caught up in the day to day of kids and laundry and facebook (hee hee) and the next thing I know, Christmas is looming on the horizon when I have barely recovered from Easter! And then, today, […]

Worn out

October 5, 2010

Worn out. Frazzled….overwhelmed. Need to rest. Need to prioritize. NEED CHOCOLATE. need to sit at the feet of Jesus. Life sometimes rushes by WAY too fast. I am taking some time to “clean out” my sewing room, clean up my inner room and rest. PEACE.
