It must be something about the season. It’s spring here. The trees are getting green, the azaleas are just about ready to bloom. Everything is fresh and new. I love it! It gets me in the planning and organizing mood. It’s not just the house I want to organize. I’m so ready to start planning …
That’s the topic for this week’s Blog Cruise. Sometimes I feel like that title sums up my life. Sigh. On other days I rejoice that homeschooling and housework are what sums up my life. My attitude aside, those are 2 of my biggest roles. And I want to do them both well. It is my …
I can’t believe it, but I actually did it. I just finished reading Revelation about an hour ago. That means I read through the entire Bible in 89 days! I had read through the Bible before, but it had been awhile. I have never read through it this fast though. (Though I started the challenge …
My kids are growing up in a different world than I did. The advances in technology just in my lifetime are staggering. (and I’m not that old!)

It’s amazing what a difference a few days can make. I worked hard this weekend getting caught up on grading and school planning. I made sure I was ready to face Monday morning before… Monday morning! And I felt so much better today. School went well. Then I started on my spring cleaning list. We …
I’ve been busy. It’s tough coming back from a long trip. I’ve had to catch up on things at HSB. I’ve had to catch up on laundry. This week I also had to finish preparing the Kids 4 Truth cards for our children’s ministry and prepare clothes for a consignment sale. School was just “do …
