Life


Head on over to Amoretti and leave a comment to enter for a chance to win one of the coolest prizes I’ve seen.  I’m not going to tell you what it is…you’ll just  have to see for yourself.  BUT hurry the winner will be announced on the 15th!

I found a fabulous site for crafting ideas for kids: The Crafty Crow…click on this link or see my side-bar…you’ll be glad you did!!

Having been inspired by Ann and Melissa Wiley I’ve come up with these, Our Rules For Beauty, Goodness and Truth:

The goal is daily to:
~Read Good books–not twaddle–this one is easy!

~Appreciate/create beauty through art (other’s and our own), music, and nature-i.e. nature walks-when we get to them!

~Engage in discourse of good ideas, think and discuss edifying & encouraging, thoughts/ideas/tpoics–this is a little harder…two uncommunicative teenagers, one 11-year old who is just not there yet, and a 1st grader and preschooler…not a lot of in-depth deep thinking going on here!

~Encounter Truth through prayer/quiet time/bible study.

And I am really trying to “let go” and allow my children to have lots of unstructured time to explore books, crafts, games, etc… This is hard for me as I am so used to creating structure for those in the family that MUST have that structure in order to live (yes, I mean the men of the family ;D).

 

Coram deo,

Lola

I’ve been inspired lately by Anna at Pleasant View Schoolhouse.  Inspired to blog more, photograph life more, and love domesticity more…
Thank you, Anna, you are a delight.

Love, Remember~Shakespeare
