Trick or Treat…

The kids are EXTREMELY excited about today. O.k., so we won’t be going “trick-or-treating” exactly, but we are going to a church “trunk or treat” this evening. By the way, here’s a pet “pic”  appropriate for the occasion that I thought you might enjoy!  Happy Halloween!  Have fun and stay safe! **Again, you can view [...]

Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)…

…Beautiful…Absolutely Beautiful. What else can I say about this song by Chris Tomlin? This song gives me “Jesus bumps” (you know–chills–the good kind). Thank you Jesus for setting me free!! To see the video of Chris singing the song (along with shots from the movie), click here. To visit the movie website, you may click [...]

More Kerry Comments…

As many of you already know, my little Kerry sure does have a “way with words!” He’s often quite expressive and comical. I know many of you really enjoy reading his comments, so here’s a few from the last couple of days or so… __________________________ Kerry: “There’s something wrong with this book!” (He’s referring to [...]

A Good Day…

As many of you know, each day can differ greatly on this homeschooling adventure! Therefore, I’m learning to be more flexible and to “go with the flow.” Anyway, today, things worked out really well. I worked with little Kerry one-on-one shortly after he awoke. Kerry had his main work done before Sarah had even gotten [...]

Hands That “Speak” To Us…

A reader left a comment mentioning the song “Who Am I?” by Casting Crowns. Of course, I had to do some research. I found a neat video of the song on You Tube, which you can view here. I really like how the people so beautifully express the song through the use of sign language. [...]

“Standing The Test Of Time…”

…Duane Allen of the Oak Ridge Boys has nothing against new, Contemporary Christian music. However, he speaks for many of us when he says that there’s just something special about those old hymns. Many of us enjoy the music of today, but that doesn’t mean that we want to throw out our hymnals! Mr. Allen [...]

The Little Witness…

My Sarah Beth is currently working on an art project for our church. She thought of an idea to draw a picture of Jesus and to write something about Him. In her own words, Sarah wrote the following (I just made a couple of spelling corrections): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jesus is who I love. I love Him [...]

Oh What An Inspiration…

…she is! Who is “she,” you may ask? We call her “Mrs. Joyce,” and she is the oldest member of our church (95 yrs. old–I think). Near the end of August of this year, we honored Mrs. Joyce and many others on The Oldest Members Sunday. Mrs. Joyce spoke to the congregation that day and [...]

I’m Now A Fan…

O.k., can I just say that in a couple of hours, I have totally become a fan of Casting Crowns!? I know this music is different from most of what I have posted in the past, but as I have also stated before, I enjoy many different types of music! I think I am developing [...]
