Let’s begin this week! Today we read of the betrayal by Judas, and the reservation of the upper room for the Last Supper. We consider the sanctity of the life that is created by God. This week we’ll add verse 3 from Psalm 121 to our scripture memory passage. We find encouragement in the prayers…
Quiet Time Corner 6/11/21
Friday at last! How’s the weather where you are? We’ve had 90’s and lots of pollen — evident from my struggles in recording this week!

Happy Thursday! Today we’ll learn from the parable of the vineyard, and we are caused to reflect in Job 38 about the wisdom and omnipotence of our Creator God.

What 2021-2022 Looks Like
Another restful thing in homeschooling is good organization. Planning ahead, and keeping track of attendance, grades, transcripts–especially in high school with an eye toward college. These are our materials for Katie’s sophomore year of high school. I use Applecore (part of my SchoolhouseTeachers.com membership) for transcripts. I’ll discuss this in more detail sometime in the…
Your Number One Tool
You know those tool sets you can buy for ladies, where everything has a stylish pink handle (maybe even glittery), and it all fits into a cute pink satchel? If we had one for restful homeschooling, the very first thing we’d need to include in it would be a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus…
