Homeschool

Q: How does a homeschooling family change a light bulb?
A: First, mom checks three books on electricity out of the library, then the kids make models of light bulbs, read a biography of Thomas Edison and do a skit based on his life.
Then, everyone studies the history of lighting methods, wrapping up with dipping their own candles.
Next, everyone takes a trip to the store where they compare types of light bulbs as well as prices and figure out how much change they'll get if they buy two bulbs for $1.99 and pay with a five dollar bill.
On the way home, a discussion develops over the history of money and also Abraham Lincoln, as his picture is on the five dollar bill.
Finally, after building a homemade ladder out of branches dragged from the woods, the light bulb is installed.
And there is light.

"I found my phone!!!"

You know....God is so good! To think that He would help a young man find his phone in this 50-acre woods is just amazing!


Anthony & his friend, Christopher, had a great time hiking thru the hills for almost an hour. Back here at the house Christopher later realized he had lost his dad's phone! So back thru the hills they went - for another 40 minutes - calling his phone every little bit. As they were starting back, I called it from here one more time.....& Christopher answered! He was so thankful that he didn't have to worry about life insurance!

Plus he had 37 missed calls!

Thank You Lord!
