  • So watcha cooking?

    My wonderful husband is home early today because of the weather and I am so thankful that he is here to help me cook!  I came down with a nasty cold on top of an eye infection that has had me down for a few days.  I just can't seem to shake the ewey eweys this year.  He just made us lunch and I thought that I would check in with all my blogging friends to see what they are doing for Thanksgiving.  Are you cooking today?  Getting ready to have family in?  Or are you one of those poor souls on the roads today stuck in traffic?  What's your Thanksgiving menu looking like???

  • Big Changes Ahead

    My husband got word yesterday that what he does at the place he works at will no longer be needed.  He will be in the same position till February and then he either needs to transfer to power or take a permanent transfer to another state. The 2 states that were mentioned were South Carolina and Tennessee. So if any of you live in those 2 states could you tell me about the homeschooling laws?  What your state is like?  Are there any areas in that state to stay away from?  If he goes to power we won't move, but he will be gone a lot!  I don't like that idea at all.  With the animals we can't go with him and I don't think him being gone all the time would be pleasing to God.  I've lived in the same town all my life so moving would be a big deal to me.  Anyone ever had to pick up and move from a place they've lived all their life? 

    Thanks everyone...

  • The girls and I

    The girls and I are making fun Thanksgiving crafts today!  We made a turkey out of Model Magic by Crayola and now they are coloring their Thanksgiving BINGO cards.  After a few games of BINGO we will make our cornucopias out of Model Magic too.  Then either tonight or tomorrow we will put up our Thanksgiving tree and hang all our decorations on it LOL  I'm such a kid at heart!

  • Has anyone ever read

    The 1599 Geneva Bible? I see that it is in print again and I am thinking about getting it.  It has all of the old study notes as well.  Any thoughts?

  • Another day...another chicken

    My 10 year old went outside to feed the chickens this morning and found a baby chicken almost dead.  She came running up to the house with it screaming for me and said it was dying.  I told her to go get a box and we would at least let it die in peace.  When she came back with the box, I thought it was dead and went to lay it in the box when I noticed it opened its eye and looked at me.  So I skipped the box, went to the bathroom, turned on the hair drier to warm the room up and it started chirping.  I then got the heating pad, wrapped the little Barred Rock in it and held it in my lap.  It started chirping very faintly but got a little strength back.  It is now in a box, on the heating pad, in my bathroom.  It can stand, but is still very tired and weak.  Scratch that, it is now standing and chirping and would like some food!  lol  This poor little girl just got too cold last night and thanks be to the Lord we found her JUST in time!  We thank God for His kindness for letting us keep this little one.

About Me

  • Hi, I'm Shannon and thankful to God to be married to the best man God could have given me for 10 years now. I'm also a SAH homeschooling mom to my 4 beautiful girls that I thank God for all the time! I love gardening, sewing, cooking, canning, animals and being a help meet to my husband. My goal in life it to server God and grow to be a true Proverbs 31 lady as well as a Titus 2 person. My husband has been called to the ministry and we both feel that it is teaching biblical manhood and womanhood. We also host a web site called reachingforrighteousness.com to help those looking for information to help them serve God better.

    @opster25@momaroo - OK for the 2nd grader, she should be learning double and triple digit addition and subtraction, rounding, and skip counting by 2's, 3's, 5's and 10's. Then after she has all of that move into multiplication. If you want a book, I love Math U See, but it is pricey. First Language

    @opster25@momaroo - We follow the program that is in The Well Trained Mind. It tells you how to do everything and then gives you a book list to choose things from. I also try to use as many non consumable books as possible sense I have 4 children. My 2nd daughter is finally reaching the age where
