Overheard
After watching a video, my ten-year-old son asked his friends,
What should we do now?
The reply made me smile inside and out.
Let’s use our imaginations!
Welcome
Thank you for visiting my record of reflections about biblical principles, family life, and home education.
May you find peace here.

the anti spam word was SCHOOL! What a funny coincidence!
From a fellow homeschooler, let me say, “Good job” to your son. Your imagination is a powerful thing!
I’ve enjoyed perusing your ‘reasons I homeschool list’. In fact, I really loved your answers. Mine aren’t as clear and concise. Right now, my number 1 reason? I love seeing them learn something new. Why give that ‘gift’ to some stranger?

Emily,
I am thankful my son and his friends are so good at using their imaginations. You should see the things they come up with! Last year they dug boy-sized tunnels through a dirt pile. And the Lego creations astound me.
I, too, enjoy seeing my children learn. There are days I think they will never “get it,” but those light bulb moments are precious. I am still awed that I taught my son to read. That is a memory we both will cherish.
