The Homeschool Mother's Journal


Once more I am joining the journey....

In my life this week...
Back to work.

In our homeschool this week...

Spring Break!

Places we're going and people we're seeing...

We visited the Dallas Arboretum with grandparents and 5 cousins under the age of 4!
The flowers were spectacular and the weather was perfect.

My favorite thing this week was...

Having my parents here for a week.

What's working/not working for us...

Following a schedule worked out great this week.


I'm also trying to be consistent in requiring chores to be completed in the morning before any fun/school begins.

Homeschool questions/thoughts I have...

I want to simplify my life and our homeschool.

A photo, video, link, or quote to share...


"We are wrong if we assume that children are too young to enjoy the Bible unless we water it down for them.  We don't know how God's spirit will work with each child, and we presume too much by keeping scripture from them because of their age." Charlotte Mason

Hi, I'm new to Homeschool Mother's Journal. Nice to have your parent visit and good weather.

Great Charlotte Mason quote. You know there is a new homeschool Bible curriculum by Well Trained Mind that says we should shouldn't teach sin and grace to children it will only confuse them???? NOT! Bug controversy now.

See you next Friday. Thanks for the peek into your week.

I love that quote, too. I have always put actual verses in front of my girls and they have understood. They understand a lot.
