5 Lessons Every Kid Should Learn

Posted in Announcements, Commercial Break, and Family

Growing up, there are many life lessons that kids need to learn.  It’s our job as parents to teach our children.  Some of the lessons that I believe are most important are: 1.  Love the Lord with all your heart, mind, and soul. When we teach our kids to love the Lord, truly love the Lord, all other things start to fall into place.  Life will not be perfect, but when the focus is on the Lord, life is just a little bit easier to handle. 2.  Love others as you love yourself.

2010 School Pictures

Posted in Family, and Homeschooling

We had fun taking some school pictures of Munchkin.  We’re still not sure we have the right shot yet as the sunlight appears too bright in most of the pictures… Munchkin doesn’t like the angle on this one, so I doubt it will make the cut. She’s not sure if she likes this shot either as it doesn’t really feel like her. This is our favorite picture, but due to the sunlight, she’s squinting a bit.  It definitely shows the true Munchkin more than the other two pictures.  We may need to try some more once the sun isn’t as…

I received this poem in an email and thought I would add some pictures and share it here. JUST WAIT AND SEE! by Marian Hanna Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. Psalm 27:14 When your thinking is confused, And your senses are bemused, Look to Christ! He will tell you what to do — Through His Spirit within you You will find His truth infused. Just wait and see! When you’re anxious, tired, and stressed, And your spirit feels depressed, Look to Christ! He is loving,…

Afternoon Activities: Volcano part 2

Posted in Homeschooling

Munchkin and D were both able to find the parts that they needed to complete their respective projects.  While Munchkin was able to complete her project, D was not so fortunate.  He’s still fighting with his truck, but that’s a different story…. After Munchkin finished assembling the volcano, we located the necessary baking soda, vinegar, food coloring, and dish soap.  We tried 3 different experiments: baking soda, vinegar, dish soap baking soda, vinegar, dish soap, food coloring baking soda, vinegar, food coloring We determined that the dish soap, while creating a slower flow, was making way too many suds.  Thus,…
