The wonder of the feasts
![feasts](https://www.torahfamilyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/passover-023-1024x768.jpg)
Keeping the feasts is such a delight. We have the opportunity to teach our children the wonders of our Creator. We can show them the mighty works that He has done. We point the way to the future when He will bring us home to Israel. But somewhere along the way, the wonder has […]
Prep day prep talk
![preparation day](https://www.torahfamilyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/gramps-marme-001-1024x768.jpg)
I find myself talking about prep day alot lately. Many of you are new to this whole idea of keeping Torah. I’m so proud of you for leaving what you knew and embarking on this journey, not always knowing what will lie ahead. I hope I can be a bit of encouragement to you today. […]
A little tour

Many of you are joining us more recently. I’m so glad you are here. I thought I’d take you on a quick tour so that you know what is available to you here. First, I’d like to point out that I do all I can to make the resources available for free. I do this […]
Torah home management – decluttering
![](https://www.torahfamilyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/basket-head-001-1024x768.jpg)
I live in the year 2012. I have 1700 sq ft in the main part of my home. I have a basement and a garage. I have outbuildings. I have succeeded in filling them up with stuff. It’s my fault. I didn’t throw away the pens that didn’t work. They didn’t seem like trash. I […]
Who is your God?

I worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He is the God who parted the Red Sea to save his people Israel. He promised Israel a land all their own. He keeps the seventh day Shabbat. He shows many signs and wonders and miracles. He keeps His promises. He sent His Son to show […]
Our schoolroom
![](https://www.torahfamilyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/schoolroom-001-1024x768.jpg)
It’s a new year, and I decided it was about time to reclaim the office. It had become a dumping ground for everything that we didn’t want in the living room. And the living room has its own problems. I have a table in the living room where I keep track of all our bills, […]
A new approach

Hello to all my friends around the globe! I am so honored that you stop by to see if I have something to say. YHVH has been very good to me and allowed me to be a part of all your lives. I have been learning some wonderful things lately, Bible studies, sleep habits, decluttering […]

Here I am at the end of another school week. My Thursday night checklist is posted on the corkboard by my desk. For some reason, there is a cookbook, sippy cup, bottle of vitamins, and half a carrot next to my laptop. The kids are just settling in to sleep. Noah is nursing, so I […]
Rubber boot homeschool week #8

I like when things work. I like when my children succeed. This week, I was able to enjoy some small successes. Perhaps the world would not bother to take notice, but I did, and chose to celebrate in my heart. This week we will be exploring the wonderful world of language arts. Writing I’m a […]
Rubber boot homeschool week #7
![homeschool spontaneity](https://www.torahfamilyliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/dancing-w-gramma-001-1024x768.jpg)
This week I would like to write about spontaneity. Homeschooling is a beautiful thing, because it allows for spontaneity. We are commanded to teach our children when they rise up, when they lie down, when they walk in the way. Torah is what we are to teach, but as I have been learning, Torah touches […]
