…to a new address on the web. You can find me over here at www.myheartathome.wordpress.com
Why? Just because.
I’ve just been in a tidy up, cozy up, and try something new mood. I rearranged the furniture in the family room too. So come on over. The chairs are pulled close to the fire for the winter [...]

…by counting His gifts (with a pile of kleenexes on each side of the computer and a “to-do” list strikingly absent of checks).
241. Kid clutter – really it is these things that make my house a home – their things, their shoes, their pictures, their toys, their treasures

Stepping back…

…from the blog world for a little while – at least a month, maybe longer. Just feeling a need and prompting to use writing time in a different way. Still plan to use my email – do drop me a line and I’ll write back.

Spring Schooling

To my friends who homeschool…
I think we did school this morning. There was a math test (with chocolate given as a reward for no silly mistakes), part of a poem copied in her best handwriting (it was just tooooooo long to finish today), a science poster added to (maybe I can convince him to add [...]
Yesterday’s Word…

After spewing a few insensitve, complaining remarks to my husband about the morning routine and general attitudes of the children, I wisely (too bad I didn’t start the day this way) sat down for a few moments in the Word.

My husband is out gardening by moonlight – except I don’t think there is a moon tonight so he’s just watering in the new transplants in the dark. He’s so good to me. Some ladies like to rearrange their furniture, try something new in the family room. I like to rearrange my flowers. He used [...]
This Day

As an idealist, I spend a lot of thought energy thinking about ideas, crafting plans, creating best possible scenarios. I am full of all sorts of ideas. You might get a little exhausted if I told you about all of my ideas. Sometimes, thinking about all these ideas, I exhaust myself.
God made me this way [...]

Dear friends,
Where to start…just now resurfacing after 4 (or was it 5?) days in bed with the flu. So thankful that’s over. Wish I could report that it was lovely to read and write and think with my head resting on the pillow, but there was no energy for those things. Just dozed, vegged, coughed, [...]
Like the Bird

Be like the bird, who
Halting in his flight
On limb too slight
Feels it give way beneath him,
Yet sings
Knowing he hath wings.
-by Victor Hugo
Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 63:7
Sick Day

Holding a feverish one on my lap. Still in my own pajamas as I fight off whatever hit me and sent me to bed at 7:00 last evening. Still, He reminds me to give thanks…
…for the warmth of this home - physical warmth, yes - but most of all for the warmth created by a husband who set all aside [...]
