Children's Bible Hour (TOS Crew Review)

We fortunate members of the 2009-2010 The Old Schoolhouse Homeschool Crew received a set of books from Children's Bible Hour Ministries.  I was sent four books with accompanying audio CDs: Race With Midnight, You Can't Come In, Seventy Times Seven, and Brave the Storm.  Each book is based on a different season, and each represents a time in the life of Christians all around the world: Spring (Race With Midnight) is new life in Christ; Summer (You Can't Come In) is growing in God's love; Autumn (Seventy Times Seven) is struggles and temptations; and Winter (Brave the Storm) is especially difficult times.  These books are part of the Seasons of Faith Series and retail for $10 each.


There were so many things to love about this book set: wonderful stories, tales based in God's word, child-friendly topics and characters we can relate to, as well as beautiful illustrations, large pages, and a compact disc that reads the book for us while we look at the pages.  I really can't choose a favorite, for we loved them all.  There was so much to learn with each one, and the fact that I can pull these books out again and again and relate them to our Christian walk as my children age is yet another bonus!

BONUS: If you order before April 15, 2010, you can receive FREE STANDARD SHIPPING on the set of four books.

*Disclaimer: These books were provided for free for me to use and review. A positive review was not necessary, and this review is based upon my personal use of the product and my opinion of it.

EuReKa!

Wow! I just read a WeE-book (a short, electronic book available for immediate download) from The Old Schoolhouse Magazine called The "Me Time Myth and Boy! was it just what the doctor ( The Great Physician , that is) ordered! I have been hosting a Really Big Pity Party around my house lately, and I have been as misguided as a little girl wandering into a Men's Restroom because she hasn't been told to look for the dress! (The only problem is, I probably have been told to look for the dress!) I have been dissatisfied with my life - every aspect of it! The house is never tidy, but I don't like to clean. The kids grumble about their schoolwork, and I get tired of rallying them. The dog is biting everybody, yet I don't feel like 'shadowing' him again today. The dishes are never done, the family needs to eat again (...whole grains, lean protein, vegetable, fruit...), the laundry is piling up (whites, darks, pastels, linens...) .... You get my drift her...

Perimenopause: What to Expect that You are NOT Expecting

Perimenopause: What to expect that you're NOT expecting. Chapter 1: The Hot (Fire) Flash (Surge) The fan must be on. In every room. And you are now Mr. Rogers. You have a sweater for every outfit. However, you live in tanks and short-sleeved shirts underneath because nakedness is frowned upon in public places and you must disrobe in haste, frequently. The socially-encouraged bondage device, a.k.a. the bra, is more despised than ever. Fuzzy socks are your friend, because your circulation is poor and your skin is dry. You will end up with a pair in every room because you inevitably needed them off for extended periods and wandered away from them, only to need them again in another room. Winter weather is both bone-chillingly cold and a delight to overheated skin. Sometimes simultaneously. Summer is intolerable. Do not get me started on having a fever while experiencing a hot flash. 😳 And while we're mentioning it.... "Hot Flash" is not an adequate phrase for the rush o...

How Has Homeschooling Affected My Life?

Well, homeschooling IS my life, so suffice it to say, there's no stone unturned!  Massive takeover, at times, a bit hostile!! For example, my second child was getting ready to embark on Mother's Day Out and my first child was conveniently ensconced in a Government-run "educational" facility, and I had a glimmer of real freedom... for about a day.  Then I found out I was preggo with Baby #3.  Commence Meltdown. I have since gotten over that traumatic , er, beautiful time, and we have embraced homeschooling.  The freedom never came, the oldest got pulled from Uncle Sam's Brainwashing Academy, and the second offspring never entered a public school.  The third will not go away to preschool. They go with me to the doctor.  This, they do not love.  Neither do I. ( Mommy, why is she putting that there?? ) Alas, it is our lot in life... at least until the eldest is of babysitting age. They go with me to the grocery store.  This, they love occasion...
