Mini Offices

I seem to have created a stir at my house with the mini offices that we made for the first week of school. All six of my children created their very own mini offices for the new school year. Mostly out of necessity. I needed some barriers betwe...

About Me:

I am a pastor's wife and we have six wonderful children. I love to be creative and to see others creativity. That is why I really like this site! Homeschooling is a fun freedom that we have and I enjoy it. I sew, paint murals (sometimes), rearrange furniture, and bake.

I Get Knocked Down But I Get Up Again!

Sometimes I get knocked down, But I get up again! I wanted this homeschool year to be so much better that what has become. And even though I felt "knocked down" about it, I am gonna get back up again.

I just love this site and all that it provides.

I am finding out how very hard it can be to have such an arrangement of ages to homeschool and this year I really felt it. I didn't think it was going to happen and it did! One of the beggest things for me, is learning to look at my 13 year old and… Continue

Lap Flap blabbbing

Hey everyone! Here's my blab for today. Lapbooking is wonderful! I just wish I could get it together at the right time at the right place and the right day! My 6 children stayed up last night making their version of lapbooks until 10pm! Now if only they would do the colonial times like I want. Hmmmm. They want robots and lego guys and some kind of aliens! Yeah! So, How do ya get them excited about doing the schoolin that you chose for them to lapbook about? I dunno. Pray for me.

It is Christmas Time!

Hi all! I am planning on sharing some Pilgrim lapbook pics this Friday Lord willing! We are so busy between homeschool, the dentist, colds, crafting for the local Christmas craft/parade this Saturday...the list could go on as you all know so well.

Homeschooling is very busy and social. Too bad the very creative moms that would be absolutely wonderful at homeschool don't know how it feels and how it helps give a creative outlet! Let's pray that more moms would come to the high calling of Keepers… Continue

Thank you for the idea that you left with my blog entry. I have not heard of the Evan Moore pockets. Would you happen to have a website link for me? I did a search and didn't come with anything that looked like what you were mentioning. I'd like to check it out.
Thanks,
TMR

The movie was super cute, so we just had to make a lapbook f…
