Friday, January 28, 2011. Why in the World Would You Want to DO THAT? Do what you ask? Yes, we are a proud homeschooling family. I can't tell you how many times I have heard the above question. SO. MANY. TIMES. So, why in the world would we want to homeschool? We still don't know that many homeschoolers and most of the people we are close with really don't understand why we do it. But today I came across this blog post. And this blog post. It's a 2-part series on the same blog) that really put into words...

The Epsteen Chronicles: August 2008
http://theepsteenchronicles.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. It's not about me! Well, it's official! I have been a mother for six years today. And I have not seriously injured or maimed any of my children. Don't I get some sort of reward for that? Seriously though, this day is not at all about me, so I thought I would write a post on the top ten things our sweet girl has accomplished in a year's time (no, I am not bragging, just a proud momma-okay maybe I am bragging a little, but I know you will forgive me! We can't wait for Chrithmuth.

The Epsteen Chronicles: September 2010
http://theepsteenchronicles.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 13, 2010. The Realness of God. The other day I was reading from Genesis 5. One of the last verses of that chapter reads like this:. He named him Noah and said, "He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the LORD has cursed." Genesis 5.29. This is the first time we read about Noah and in one sentence we learn more about him than about most of the characters in this chapter. "He will comfort us.". A while ago too. Just in the past week, I have had ...

Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Last week our family was able to fulfill a longtime dream of ours of purchasing livestock. Granted, Cara didn't come to us in the traditional way, but she is ours nonetheless. Well, at least 1/14th of her. Cara, blog readers. Blog readers, Cara. She's a little camera shy. But isn't she beautiful? All five ladies, doing what the ladies were made to do. Cara is in the middle. Cara comes to us from This Old Farm. A proud, raw milk family. Each Sunday, we travel to the farm, which is a...

Illustrated with Crappy Pictures. Life, marriage, parenting, etc.). Going viral, the puking kind…illustrated with crappy pictures. August 1, 2011. Last Monday started like any other Monday except the boys were being unruly. More unruly than usual, anyway. This was the beginning of a very long week that I. Couldn’t handle. We were about to go viral. With an intestinal virus. Here is how it all went down…. So I hear them from the kitchen where I’m making breakfast. Yelling. Fighting. They are getting sick.

The Epsteen Chronicles: October 2008

Wednesday, October 15, 2008. My One True Desire. Because of that, I am still stuck on the introduction. I'll probably be there for a month! One thing Sunny said in the introduction was to pray for the Holy Spirit's pruning in your life. But you know, I am like just about every other American Christian I know. I like to be comfortable. It doesn't feel good to go deeper because most of the time I don't like what is there and it hurts. I mean, really, really hurts. I share all of this to tell another story&...

The Epsteen Chronicles: Physical Education, Epsteen-Style
http://theepsteenchronicles.blogspot.com/2011/04/physical-education-epsteen-style.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. Physical Education, Epsteen-Style. Today, after the kids had completed their assigned work for the day, they built a fort with the cushions of the couch and enjoyed a little physical activity. I snapped a few pictures of our highly advanced homeschool physical education curriculum. Enjoy! Yep, that's how we roll. Good times. We are always telling our 4 year old that our couch isnt a trampoline, and she still doesnt agree! January 1, 2012 at 7:19 PM. We are THOSE parents.

Sunday, May 16, 2010. The Story of You. Today is a very important day. This is what I see as I sit here typing this:. This is my sweet one month old snuggling on my chest. I cannot even begin to describe how faithful and loving and gracious my God is. Especially when I pause to consider that my son should not even be here. Yet here we are, celebrating one whole, perfect, beautiful month with our sweet, sweet boy. Rick and I decided about a year ago that we wanted to start trying to conceive again. So...
