Great Prayer Ideas for the Kiddos
In the past two days I’ve gotten 3 fantastic prayer ideas that really inspired me.

Joining the Hip Homeschool Hop
It’s official! Hubby has (finally!) agreed with my desire to homeschool my boy for Kindergarten this year. I’ve ordered our curriculum and supplies, and we’ll be starting school next week – hooray!

Teaching About Charity
Hooray! Today’s my day to write on the Seeds of Faith blog.

had swimming lessons for my 5-year-old
spent some time at the lake after lesson “swimming” [...]
