This is our memory verse for the next while. I’ve been less diligent with memorizing verses than I would like and how this is the start to a better routine.
There is really no formal plan for memorizing but the are lots of opportunities in the day when kind words are not the default and I can share this verse with them. That’s the current plan, we’ll see how it goes.
I would love to hear how you go about memorizing verses in your home and some of the verses you’ve learned.
This week we are continuing with Redwall at lunch. The kids are both really enjoying it. We are going through a little slower than normal because it is on discs from the library instead of an online audiobook so we aren’t listening while we are driving/doing errands like we normally do (we’ve been listening to…

I…
Here’s a look at this week’s library haul! Ephraim got out the body books, Rae’s are the top two chapter books (minus the audiobook) and mine are the ones about backyard chickens (for my one day dream). Upcoming themes: gardening and bees! I love that the library has this nifty feature that lets us know…
We do a fair bit of gameschooling (learning through games). One Rae really likes is Sushi Go – it’s fairly quick and easy to play but my favorite part is the different kinds of math that go into calculating the score. Sneaky (and fun!) learning at it’s finest. If you’re interested I have a list…
Welcome to our first Day in the Life! I’m hoping to make this a monthly series here. I really appreciate our ability to have slow mornings. Unless we have to be somewhere early I let the kids wake up on their own and we usually eat breakfast separately since some need to eat as soon…
