Mrs. Lee's 2010


It is that time of year!!! Mrs. Lee's is the best place to drive through the daffodils and take a million pictures!! We took a break from our exams to catch the daffodils in bloom!!
I wondered if we'd catch them this year!! I'm so glad we did!!! A gal even stopped to help me get a shot of all of us!! How kind!! She was a God send!!
Stop and smell the flowers... it is far to easy to rush by... keep the schedule and only take a glance. We don't get here by accident!! Often you have to seek what is best... Oh, that is like God's word.
I will not accidentally find time to be in the Bible. It must be a priority and trump all else... I do want to find God's best...




This is a favorite shot!! Ladybug with a ladybug. The littlest ladybug I've ever seen!!!










Here's last year... 2009...
That's a wrap!! by Grace!! ss

10 Commandments

We've had lots of discussions lately... hard discussions... I have found God's grace and protection standing on His 10 commandments!!


In the 10, God gives us boundaries... inside those boundaries are blessings. When we break them, consequences can cover a lifetime.



Teaching my girls the 10 commandments has become more and more important. They explain boundaries God puts in place for our blessing.

You Must Use Hand Motions!!

  1. There is 1 God

  2. Scissors.. Cut out the idols

  3. Trace a W... Our Words are important, Do not take Gods name in vain

  4. Mom, Dad & girls get in car an go to church... Sabbath

  5. Salute.. Honor Mom & Dad

  6. Bang.. Do Not Kill

  7. Married Couple separate from the world... for life.. No Adultery

  8. 2 fingers cut off... Punishment for stealing in some Arab countries

  9. 9 Standing up... 1 lying down... Do Not Lie

  10. Gimme Gimme... Do Not Covet

Find them verse by verse in Exodus 20.

I pray my girls seek God's blessings!! Remember the 10... Live it!! By Grace!! ss

Read me a book!

One of my favorite parts of teaching my girls is to lead them alooooong a b c letters til they can finnnnallllly and joyfully read!! It is work. It's not easy. There's a lot of time in the trenches... Even so.... I love it!!! I'm blessed with one bookworm already...


"Ladybug... Read me a book!!!" This is her first time to read this book!!!


Hedge Loves to Read


It is Exam week!! This is her reading exam!! Grade that!! :)

Only by Grace!! ss
