Life, creatively written. Miss Heather Needs a Tissue. Driving Their Mother →. Loving With One Hand Open. February 6, 2013. At Department of Family Services parental visitation facility, the foster parent waiting lounge is not beige and it is not brown and it is not pink. I don’t really know what color sits so thick on the cinderblock walls. On some days I suppose mauve and on other days I guess olive. Whatever color it is, I am sure of one thing. That color is the color of sadness. Baby girl’s birth mot...

every day. all day.: evening routine*
http://sixofsix.blogspot.com/2013/04/evening-routine.html
Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Tuesday, April 09, 2013. It's no secret that a mom with multiple kids has a hard time getting out of the house in the morning. And those of us that homeschool might be particularly challenged by gathering up the gang (brushed, washed and dressed, no less) for morning appointments, co-op classes, and even church on Sunday. These are the days lists and routines keep me sane and focused. Th...

every day. all day.: the organized homeschool

Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Tuesday, April 02, 2013. Each of my kids gets a daily "what I did today" sheet in their school planner. This is where I communicate to them what they need to accomplish each day and where they record it. On Friday they get out their notebooks and show their Daddy just what they were up to all week. Day by day. Then it happened: I saw that m. Planning and record keeping looks so different now.

every day. all day.: the never ending quest for an organized house
http://sixofsix.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-never-ending-quest-for-organized.html
Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Monday, April 01, 2013. The never ending quest for an organized house. My goal this week is to get the house back to a functioning level. I pulled out my old control journal. And found some impressively organized- but seriously outdated- stuff! Still, I was glad to find my detailed cleaning lists by zones. Joy of joys, right? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to my journal of our d...

Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. My no-more-planning-every-single-page homeschooling- what? Earlier this month I eluded to some. We are using in our schooling. And then there was the re-figuring everything when (not if) we got off schedule. Last month I got this crazy idea from a Charlotte Mason seminar I took. What if- now stick with me here, this is groundbreaking- what if I didn't plan th...

every day. all day.: Don't Quit
http://sixofsix.blogspot.com/p/charlotte-mason-notes.html
Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Approximately six months after I brought the kids home from school, I locked myself in my closet, a tearful mess. These are the days most homeschoolers won't tell you about. But I'm telling you because you might be were I was and looking for something, anything, that will encourage you to keep on. I felt very alone. And I was failing. In addition, I managed to stifle every flicker of love of...

every day. all day.: waiting for someday
http://sixofsix.blogspot.com/2013/05/waiting-for-someday.html
Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. Friday, May 24, 2013. Do you ever find yourself longing for "someday"? When these kids grow up, then.". I don't know what these men prayed for at midnight. If we know Paul, we can guess he was praying that God's word would not be bound. That the door to be wide open for gospel. They certainly were singing hymns of praise. And you know what? The prisoners were listening. I can get so caught u...

http://sixofsix.blogspot.com/p/chalotte-mason-notes.html
Every day. all day. That a people yet to be created may praise the Lord." psalm 102:18. RUTH'S farm and furniture. This phrase "you not them" is from the TJ Ed philosophy of learning. I have been applying it in our CM education at home but am learning from my readings of Volume 2 of Charlotte Mason's books that Mason taught a variation of this concept as well. And the Out-of-Door Life. Teaching a child to read. One method. And on determining reading readiness. Training the habit of attention. National Ho...

Driving Their Mother | Heather Was Here
https://heatherwashere.com/2013/06/08/driving-their-mother
Life, creatively written. Loving With One Hand Open. 90 and Seven Days →. June 8, 2013. I had counted and found that there were forty-nine, and after today there will be an even fifty. A phone rings and rings unanswered. A nurse calls a name that isn’t ours. A rise of laughter emerges from a talk show audience displayed on the TV in a distant corner of the room. Behind me, the entry door to the office opens and closes with a click. When they next doctor appointment? Tomorrow at nine in the morning. Or be...
