We are in the middle of learning about birds.  Keegan, my 3 year old, picked out this book on Flamingo’s at the library. It prompted some […]

Learning to Trust…

Written by Heather Haupt 3 Comments

As I think about God’s gifts and blessings for us, I’ve been struck lately with the packaging in which these ‘gifts’ arrive. I’ve been praying for the last couple of years that God would grow my trust and faith in Him.  I want to live every moment free of worry and confident in who God is […]

Edible Learning

Written by Heather Haupt 4 Comments

We’ve been learning about birds and their nests this week!  I was inspired after reading about another family who studied robins and made their own nests. If I haven’t mentioned it before, I LOVE food.  The prospect of making a tasty treat with my kids that I could pass off as an educational experience was just too […]

Where Art and Eating Meet

Written by Heather Haupt 4 Comments

Playdough is so versatile!  This week we’ve been playing around with color mixing!  It is so much more fun to discover things for oneself than to just be told what’s true… So we set out to find out what happens when you mix blue and yellow. It was hard work… Mixing, mixing, mixing. Look mom, […]

Kids fixate on the most bizarre things… He can’t make up his mind on whether he’s a dog or a mommy.  (I think it’s time that this item that was left at our home gets returned…)

Wise Words…

As I was strolling through the blogosphere I came upon these comments made by the well rounded mama: I will cherish today. It is the only one I have. I want to soak up all that it has to offer…all the snuggles, all the kisses, all the teachable moments. I have been given a gift […]

 In a fit of mental abstraction, I started a new book AND a grilled cheese at the same time. Shakespeare analysis and cooking do not go hand in hand. 😖😜 #brightestheavenofinvention #peterleithart #shakespeare

Instagram post 2235262231225123070_1420023259 When your hubby goes to Arizona for the #RagnarDelSol and returns with a suitcase full of lemons... 😍🍋😍🍋😍 One of the unexpectedly difficult things about moving from AZ to north Texas was the realization that for the first time in your life, you would have to pay for winter citrus...

The security at the airport said that was the most lemons they had ever seen someone bring thru on a carry on. So excited for homemade strawberry, blueberry, and vanilla lemonade, my husband's specialties!

After several days of gray cold, sunshine beckoned us outside. Actually, they've been working on clearing an area for this fort all week even in the cold. Today is finally warm and 🌞 enough for me to traverse the mesquite forest to join them... #NatureTherapy #everychildoutdoors #momtoo

She's playing house, raising her children, and informed me she's in the middle of moving... 😯 We can tidy up later... or not... as is evidenced by the hand made basketball hoop still hanging to the side which we ended up incorporating into our space for the time being. But there is peace when we recognize the purpose in their play. #powerofplay #wildandfreechildren #encouragingimagination
Instagram post 2232104592257556739_1420023259 The teen years are such an amazing season of coming into your own, thinking deeply about the world around you as you transition into adulthood. My teens have stepped up to new challenges this year with their education that have really stretched them (and me). Mondayy, my oldest participated in his first debate. This guy has delved deep into Scripture and borrowed books to understand both sides and prep for his debate. All four did a fabulous job thinking these issues through and participating with their assigned position and I love the conversations it has sparked between the four of them as well as in our own home! .

👉👉 Learning to research, learning to reason, and learning to listen to another's arguments are such invaluable skills that will stick with them for the rest of their lives! 👈👈 We are thankful for Worldviews of the Western World curriculum and the Worldview Classes in our area that have provided so much for our homeschool year.
