Throughout the Bible there are instances of God’s children questioning him. I do believe in the sovereignty of God, but there are definitely times when I’ve thought, “Lord, what are you doing here? This would really not be my choice.” (I may not have thought it so nicely either.) A friend of mine has been through an almost …
Saturday was my younger son’s 6th birthday. He was so excited about it for the whole month of March because he could see his name written on the calendar. (His birthday was the 29th.) He wanted a truck cake, and I Iooked all over for ideas on how to make one, but at the urging of my husband …

It has been an eventful several days for our family. Today we started back to school after 5 days off. My husband had surgery on his ankle on Thursday so I had my hands full over the weekend. He was able to get out and go to church and to his parents’ house on Easter. …

We completed the World War I lapbook from Hands of a Child on Friday. I appreciated having their resource guide. I basically used their guide to teach the material. We listened to Story of the World, watched Sergeant York, and read a few supplementary books as well. This was the first HOAC lapbook that we …
I started the penguin lapbook from Lapbook Lessons a couple of months ago with my K son. We did most of the books that we were going to use and then I put them in my big folder and forget to make them into a lapbook. I’m sure that never happens to anyone else 😉 Last week, …
I have seen several people posting weekly reports on their blogs, and I finally found the source this week. So, I am going to attempt and join the ranks of the weekly reporters. This week was a good week for us. For Bible we are using Veritas Bible Cards (Chronicles-Malachi). This week we studied …
