Making homeschool decisions easy
I’ve never considered myself to be an art lover. In fact, before I started homeschooling, it’s not something I thought about very much at all.

Now this Margaret, who has become Dr. Helder, is one of the most prominent women in creation science, and

Sometimes workshops hold a mini lesson and give participants time to write and some, like ours, encourages writers to bring pieces they’ve already written to be shared during the workshop. Our workshop is based on the model from the book Workshops Work
In big church, I find myself humming the tune of Happy Birthday to You when we read, “Marvel not that I said… marvel not that I said… marvel not that I said unto thee ye must be born again” John 3 verse 7.
