Charlotte Mason {in Church}

We have begun our second semester of Children's Church. Things are starting to become easier for all involved... the teachers are seeing the benefits of the new routine and the kids are getting used to the structure. The kids are also getting better at narrating, which is encouraging because we have some pretty young kids (ages 4+ but also some 3 year olds come, too)!

Woodburning {Handicrafts}

This term we are working on wood burning! It's totally different than our last handicraft (embroidery) but the girls have enjoyed it so far. This could come in handy for so many different gift ideas or artwork - just look at these examples:

Happy New Year!

A new year means new goals and this is one of mine:

I hope to make good progress on my goal of reading through CM's volumes over the next two years. I have read some or all of five volumes but would like to read them all completely. I need to just keep reading to keep it fresh in my mind, especially as I will be starting Julia in Kindergarten next school year (!).

I'm missing Vol 5 because my husband is reading it!
