She's One of the Finalists!

We got the call last night letting us know that Priscilla has made it into the finals for the Emerging Artist Scholarship. Soon she will be going to the school for Scholarship Weekend and going through the final process. We are really hoping that she gets this because, not only will it be an honor, it will be a substantial part of her tuition. I am guessing we will know something by the end of this month.

And also, your idea of giving your children a same ornament each year - I love it. I am so glad to read of moms who understand that a future is coming, when they will want relationships between adult children to continue. Great idea!; 10:43 AM

"May we remember as parents that we are His children, and that He is about the business of changing our hearts, of repairing our ruins, of remaking us. And though He has not finished with us, He has placed in our care His children. May He in His grace keep our hearts aflame for these children. May He give us minds like steel traps that we would never be distracted, that we would not forsake our calling. May He, the great Steward, make us faithful stewards of children, the most precious gifts, of which is the kingdom of God." RC Sproul, Jr.

About Me:

I've been married to my husband since January of 1987. In November of that year our first daughter arrived. Twenty-one years and seven children later, we are living a full life in rural Tennessee. Our children are ages 22, 21, 19, 17, 15, 13 and 9. We've homeschooled from the start ~ back when two little girls sat at their desks filling out preschool workbooks. Boy, have we learned a lot! Now we don't own any desks at all but instead we prefer to gather at the large kitchen table or in the living room with cozy blankets and hot tea to read many wonderful books. I really do love my life!
