Our governor extended our stay at home order here

Our governor extended our stay at home order here until May 4th. It is hard to imagine what the outcome of all this is going to be but it is easy to focus on the worst possibilities and let the darkness creep in. And there is really nothing I can do except trust God... and paint one more picture, light another candle, read aloud another chapter, cook the next meal, plant a few seeds and do the next right thing.

Looking for some new ideas to keep your kids busy

So... after watching the livestream from our churc

So... after watching the livestream from our church, we had a family movie marathon! We watched 5 movies in all! We have never done anything like this before as we are generally a pretty low screen family. It was so fun showing the kids a bunch of old Disney classics. Everyone had a great time and I think it made some pretty fun memories!

My two little princesses looking out the window. These two love each other so much and are best friends. My sister and I were best friends since we were their ages and still are. I pray the same for my girls.

We enjoyed the live stream service from our church

We enjoyed the live stream service from our church this morning. Then had a little fire this afternoon to burn trimmings from the yard and garden. We also roasted hotdogs and marshmallows. Tonight it is chili for dinner, Dominion games, and read alouds. We are doing our best to make sweet memories during this coronavirus isolation.

Learning land forms with kinetic sand today for geography. This is the first time we have done this and it is a success!
"The first ideas of geography, the lessons on place, which should make the child observant of local geography, of the features of his own neighborhood, its heights and hollows, and level lands, its streams and ponds, should be, as we have seen out of doors, and should prepare him for a certain amount of generalisation- that is, he should be able to discover definitions of river, island, lake and so on, and should make these for himself in a tray of sand..." Charlotte Mason, Home Education pg. 276
