Psalm 17:8
Psalm 17:8 “Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings.” I love finding word pictures in Scripture. Sometimes I have to dig a little into the Hebrew to find them. Sometimes they are right in front of me. This verse immediately makes me think of chickens. I […]

What is Torah family living?
What is Torah family living? What does it look like? It will look slightly different in every family, but there are common factors. The main idea is to take the principles found in Torah very seriously and seek to apply them on a daily basis. There is much more in Torah than Sabbath and the […]
Sadie’s Stories
I don’t normally do a separate preschool curriculum. Normally the little ones sit with me while I teach the bigger ones. They participate where they can, pick info up by osmosis, and stay out of trouble. Everyone’s happy! But this year, I felt the need to do something different with Sadie. She is child #4, […]
A sample

Pen Benefits
So I wrote a book about parenting. I hope you all enjoy it. I’m sure you won’t agree about everything in it. And that’s okay, because I wrote it mostly for myself. Suddenly, I have changed my perspective as a mother. (Perhaps I want to make sure I’m doing my best so I don’t become […]
Thoughts on the Old Testament

Any ideas?
I have a sore right “milk jug.” I’ve had infections before, and don’t want to spend my birthday tomorrow with one. I’m taking vitamin C and echinacea. Doug bought me a cabbage, because the leaves are supposed to be comforting. I have a feeling it is brought on by stress. I have a bunch of […]
Passive Solar Heater
I wanted to show you one of our summer projects. It is a passive solar heater based on the principle that hot air rises and cold air sinks. We built it with a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood for the back. It has two holes on the top for vents and two holes on […]
