At Home in the Wilburness: April 2011
http://athomeinthewilburness.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. April 30, 2011. A time of testing. It’s that time of our school year when I set aside a handful of days for the administration of standardized tests. As homeschoolers, one of the requirements expected of us by the state in which we live is to have each child tested to ensure that they have made sufficient academic progress over the past year. Even then it would only scratch...

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. January 6, 2011. Every New Year’s Day brings with it excitement about new possibilities; thoughts of the previous year are dismissed like a nerd at the prom, and we pause to consider the year ahead and its unknown adventures, twists, and turns. Calendars were a mainstay in my childhood home, and I’ve continued the tradition. Even the cover of the calendar. To me, they are w...

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. March 12, 2011. Our eight-year-old twin boys are as different as can be. This is evident in nearly every part of their lives, including their schoolwork. Even in learning math, a subject at which they both excel, their skills and approach to learning it are vastly different. But he does not have the times table memorized. And then there’s our Daniel. When it’s time to...

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. October 31, 2011. 0 out of 5 dentists approve. 65279;. Daniel minus a couple of teeth. 65279; 50% of the members of our household are at the age of losing their teeth on a regular basis. For this reason we modified the traditional caramel apple recipe. Audra and Zach volunteered to help make them. I sliced up four apples into small manageable pieces. Next time I will fore...

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. November 14, 2011. With a recent thorough breakdown came a fresh new start. I removed just about every knick-knack, picture, and assorted other decorative item from our master bedroom, living room, dining room, and kitchen. I put extra leaves into our dining room table, moved the chairs out of the way, and laid all the items out on the table in essentially rainbow order.

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. May 28, 2011. Our solution to those filthy fingerprints. Home to our TV, games, and toys, our basement is where our kids head to for fun. But in getting there they have been leaving dirty fingerprints along a half wall that juts out on the right side of our staircase. Tired of the fingerprints, I finally did what I do when faced with a need for serious cleaning. This soluti...

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. November 6, 2011. It's all yours now. It was the 80’s, I was a teenage girl, and therefore my hair was big. A hairstyle of this volume and magnitude took time, and we only had one full bathroom. My parents bought a lovely antique vanity for my bedroom. If anyone would walk by and notice her doing so, she would immediately stop. Our guests are just going to have to do without.

At Home in the Wilburness. Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her own hands." Proverbs 14:1. June 18, 2011. Closed for the summer. This past week we finished our school year and reclaimed the kitchen for solely non-educational purposes until the fall. After ten years of homeschooling, we have found that the kitchen works best for us as command central for our schoolwork. Working out math problems together, and sometimes just drawing silly pictures. I moved a tired,...
