“We are women, and my plea is let me be a woman,

“We are women, and my plea is let me be a woman, holy through and through, asking for nothing but what God wants to give me, receiving with both hands and with all my heart whatever that is.” Elizabeth Elliot.
.
As we render thousands of small acts of service and love and care and comfort- we are in service to our Abba God in each act, no matter how small. What glorious kindness He bestows on us to allow us to be grace makers and gate keepers of our homes!
.
May you find joy and peace in the art of homemaking and serving not only this holiday week, but each and every day dear friends. This quiet and unassuming work has so many eternal rewards.
.
Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

“After silence, that which comes nearest to expr

“After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.” Aldous Huxley.
.
Music has always been a part of my life. I grew up listening to many kinds of music, singing many kinds of music, and have played piano since I was 5. I could not imagine the abject destitution of an education without music. And that is just another reason why I fell in love with #Charlottemason methods.
.
Charlotte believed in the value of beauty and how it directs us toward Truth. Hymns, folk songs, composer study, solfa, and learning to play are all part of her program. It’s why everything but the playing is part of @thehomeschoolgarden curriculum!
.
The instruction in playing has been made so much simpler in our time of technology. Piano, guitar, ukulele, recorder, tin whistle and many other instruments can be learned through video instruction that are often available for free online! I sometimes wonder what Charlotte would think about that 😊
.
Both our boys take piano from a wonderful local home educator (I knew playing piano was something we needed an outside tutor for). They have different goals in learning to play and my goal has always been for them to love music.

I was thrilled to be able to share about Advent on

A few sweet selections from one of my favorite Rob

A few sweet selections from one of my favorite Robert Frost poems encapsulates so much of the joy of our family’s humble day to day life 💖.
.
In the Home Stretch
.

She stood against the kitchen sink, and looked
Over the sink out through a dusty window
At weeds the water from the sink made tall.
She wore her cape; her hat was in her hand.
Behind her was confusion in the room,
Of chairs turned upside down to sit like people
In other chairs, and something, come to look,
For every room a house has—parlor, bed-room,
And dining-room—thrown pell-mell in the kitchen.
And now and then a smudged, infernal face
Looked in a door behind her and addressed
Her back. She always answered without turning.
…………………………….

When there was no more lantern in the kitchen,
The fire got out through crannies in the stove
And danced in yellow wrigglers on the ceiling,
As much at home as if they’d always danced there.

Beef ramen with @lotusfoods #glutenfree noodles was a hit at lunch. Now I can work on getting the boys to eat veggies in it next 😆.

Restlessness and discontent are the pervasive mood

Restlessness and discontent are the pervasive mood in our world right now, but they don’t get to reside in our homes.
.
In this season of winding down and entering the winter rest we can focus on the things we have to be grateful for. The best of which is our glorious Savior and the beauty that He showers on us as the leaves are painted into ruby reds and amber yellows, crisp and whispering in the soft autumn breezes. The crunch under our feet as we tramp through the woods and wonder at how the sunlight makes a red maple blaze and shimmer. The deliciousness of steaming hot cider in a favorite mug as we gather around the fire to sing family worship songs. The bright and spiced crimson threads and sweet smells of saffron crocus.
.
There is beauty everywhere and it calls us to praise Him. And that is truly the best cure for the ills of discontent.
.
Take time today to simply stop and be glad in the Lord.

Today’s #charlottemasonmondays topic is Scouting

Today’s #charlottemasonmondays topic is Scouting. This is near and dear to my boys, but I’m still learning 😉.
.
This fireside moment of 4 year old Mr. T and our dear departed gentle giant, Aslan, sharing hot dogs was one of many backyard excursions that my Eagle Scout husband took the boys on when they were very little. He’s big on teaching skills, awareness, and safety in fun ways that still convey the importance of learning and care.
.
Now Mr. T is the Patrol Leader in his Trail Life troop. Mr. F is excellent at building and starting campfires. Both boys are capable of selecting camp sites, setting up tents, fishing, and identifying poison ivy (it only takes once 😬).
.
These are valuable skills for survival, leisure, and fostering observation, independence, and a healthy respect for Creation. If you haven’t tried adding scouting to your home learning, @delightfullyfeasting has a fantastic scouting curriculum that makes it easy to do!
.

“Our aim in education is to give a full life. We

“Our aim in education is to give a full life. We owe it to them to initiate an immense number of interests. Life should be all living, and not merely a tedious passing of time; not all doing or all feeling or all thinking - the strain would be too great - but, all living; that is to say, we should be in touch wherever we go, whatever we hear, whatever we see, with some manner of vital interest.”~ Charlotte Mason
.
We visited a local art exhibit today and admired some lovely and interesting paintings. Mr. F wanted to sketch one so he made sure to take his notebook.
.
As soon as he began to try his perfectionist tendencies reared up and a small meltdown ensued. Y’all, this parenting gig is no joke. And anyone who thinks “giftedness” is all rainbows and unicorns doesn’t realize it’s really sliding uncontrollably down the rainbow with the unicorn waiting at the bottom 🦄 to skewer you. (The lovely @colleenkessler has resources for you if you are wrangling life stapled to a cheetah, too.)
.
All that to get to this point- don’t be afraid to pause lessons/interrupt meltdowns/ take your children out to experience things and fully live. Sometimes, often perhaps, life is uncomfortable. If we don’t let them wrestle through that now they will not know how to wrestle and cope with the uncomfortable when they are older. We mamas need the practice, too 😬.
.
After some encouragement and talking through the hang ups, Mr. F sketched a lovely if somewhat tense rendering of an apple. He overcame his struggle today and perhaps next time the struggle will be less. I earned two more silver hairs 👵🏻 and an afternoon tea latte.
.
For this afternoon outing, my precious children, and the constant sanctification that parenting brings I am truly thankful. What #everydaygraces are you thankful for today?
