Wednesday, April 23, 2014. 5 Things Homeschoolers Do That Are Not Awesome. I love, love, love the homeschooling community. Love it. These are some of the most inclusive bunch of independents you'll ever meet. Most of us love to include newbies and prospectives in our lives and convince them "You can do it! But only if you want to! And it will look different than any other homeschool. Is our motto. Patience is not a prerequisite! Someone say, "Amen! Right now. Say it! People takin' Deuteronomy 6 seriously?

Spouseisms: When the Pastor Says, "Greet the people around you..."
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2013/11/how-to-handle-greeting-time-at-church.html
Saturday, November 9, 2013. When the Pastor Says, "Greet the people around you.". I rejoiced with those who said to me,. Let us go to the House of the Lord! We've learned a few things in the past year and a half about being the newbies. Not the least of which is how to better handle the greeting time at church. When the pastor says, "Let's all take a moment to greet the people around you and tell them you are glad they are here today", I handle this much differently than I did before. I did this to peopl...

Spouseisms: Moving Stories & the Absurdity of Grace.
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-absurdity-of-grace.html
Sunday, August 31, 2014. Moving Stories and the Absurdity of Grace. So, remember a few weeks ago, we left Houston. Bound for our Florida home once again? Well, we made it. We closed on a townhouse in a town we had only ever been to a handful of times,. Starting about 6 weeks ago. Seriously. We were sold on this cutesy little coastal town and these sunsets:. Talk about 'fire in the sky'. We are absolutely loving our new town. It is small (population of about 35k),. It's the absurdity of grace. Nor do I wa...

Spouseisms: Snippets & Photos & Not-So-Breaking News.
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2014/07/snippets-photos-not-so-breaking-news.html
Monday, July 28, 2014. Snippets and Photos and Not-So-Breaking News. Sunset Paddle in Englewood, Florida. Sweet Blog Reader's O'Mine. I was hoping that would sound like Guns 'N Roses, so this post is a fail from the start. Read on at your own risk. My last post was June 3rd. I don't even know. So much has been going on I don't even know where to begin. I JUST, as in this very moment, noticed I didn't even finish our road trip series. From May. Seriously? The ever-faithful iPhone photo dump. We got to spe...

Spouseisms: Why I Don't Live for my Kids
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2013/05/why-i-dont-live-for-my-kids.html
Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Why I Don't Live for my Kids. I once overheard a woman on her cell phone talking about her children making her feel guilty about something. Of course, I only heard one side of the conversation, but at one point she replied to her caller, "I know! I absolutely LIVE for my kids! Now, I don't know this lady, so I can't say if she was speaking hyperbolically or not, but this facially-expressive non-eavesdropper raised my eyebrows to the sky! All that and I do not live for them. That's ...

Tuesday, October 14, 2014. 13 Ways Home Improvements Are Nothing Like HGTV. Spoiler alert: Our kitchen is finally finished and we love it. This was a combination of hired in and DIY. Let me tell you something, HGTV is not reality. It is nothing like real home improvement or renovation projects. I mean, it's similar in that at the end you may have a new room, but one travels a very different road than those shown on the HGTV. 13 Not one person wore safety glasses. Cause that would have been distracting.

Spouseisms: June 2014

Tuesday, June 3, 2014. Confessions of a Snob. Yes, Really. I loathe pretentiousness. I loathe it. It is an inexcusable quality in a person to over state one's own importance. I mean, I know we've all got pride issues, but for whatever reason, this one just gets me boiling. Then, there's Pretentious's cousin, Snobby. Snobby is always ugly and reeks. And, that's me. Not about everything. Not about most things, I think. But, I confess it. I'm a Beach Snob. I've written about it before. I was so hopeful!

Thursday, March 26, 2015. 14 Truths on her 14th Birthday. Another birthday in the house. Big Sister is 14. I'm so excited for her future. This kid is the real deal. I'm not the mom that cried at kindergarten or cries as my girls get older,. Although all these baby teeth pics are killing me. I do, however, get a sense of urgency. So many things. So little time. 1 The more you know the Truth, the more you'll recognize a lie. Plaster your memory with the Word. By living according to your Word. Be brave....
