One Word ~ 2014




This graphic has lots of words, but they are all components of my ONE word for 2014 …. Steadfast.

I want to be faithful in my time with the Lord.
I want to be committed to growing the strength of my marriage.
I want to remain dependable to my children.
I want to be trustworthy to my friends.
I want to be reliable to those whom I have made commitments.
I want to help make steady progress in our becoming debt free.
I want to be devoted to fulfilling my savings plans.
I want to be a staunch devotee to exercising, eating healthy, and taking care of my body.
I want to be a true visionary in all of the atmospheres where I teach.
I want to produce solid reviews for the Schoolhouse Review Crew.
I want to keep God as a constant companion and confidante.
I want to be loyal to my call to teach my children and give it all I have each day.


Steadfast.

  2. That is an excellent word choice, and one that I am sure you will be successful with in 2014. Your posts yesterday and today have inspired me to choose a word for myself, too. I am still deciding on it, or I would share it now. The honesty and genuineness of your blog is so refreshing. Happy 2014! :)

ABCya

Eli's reading resource teacher shared a website with me yesterday that I would like to pass along. It's called ABCya . There are separate educational sections with fantastic games for ages kindergarten through 5th grade. I browsed the 2nd grade level, and it includes age-appropriate games about Letters, Numbers, Shapes, Geometry, Patterns, Mouse Manipulation, Art and Holiday games. There are lots and lots of fun and creative games for children to play. They are fun, but oh, so educational. Eli's favorite, in his short time playing it, was Create a Car . A lot of the games also have Apps available for purchase (99 cents for most of them) for the iPad and iPhone. I have been looking for another free website for games similar to Starfall , for some time. I think I have found it. I can feel confident having Eli and Brynne play these games.

Cells ~ It's What's for Dinner

Dawson made edible cells on Friday. He made an animal cell pizza ... and a plant cell chocolate chip cookie ... He reviewed what he's learned about cells the past two weeks, and I had dinner made by someone else. Win, win!! I am linking up at Science Sunday at Adventures in Mommydom.

Last Child in the Woods ~ Chapters 1-4

Welcome to our book study of Last Child in the Woods by Richard Louv. To be honest, I have no idea what this "study" is going to look like. I imagine that when we get together I will post about all of the things that caught my eye. And I would ask that you leave a comment, or a link to your own blog post in the comment, about what caught yours. This isn't anything formal, ladies, just a place to talk about what we have read. I have now read the first four chapters of Last Child in the Woods two times. It is just so good. Several things have specifically hit me deep, but in general I just realized that "times, they are a changin'." Things aren't the way they were when we were kids. Chapter 1. Gifts of Nature ~ "When I see birches bend to left and right ... I like to think some boy's been swinging them." ~ Robert Frost What is your definition of nature? What feelings, visions, senses does it conjure up? For me, it's not a
