When Children Interrupt MY Time in The Word
Lately, the Lord has been showing me the necessity of being in His Word on a daily basis. I can’t read Psalm 119 without realizing the importance of God’s Word in my daily life. Some days I come with anticipation and sometimes I come with reluctance. Either way, I come out of obedience to Him […]

8th Grade Homeschool Curriculum Choices
This will be my second time homeschooling an 8th grader. I’m learning that what works for one child doesn’t always work for another.
