I wanted to ask you some homeschooling questions but your email address (elisehooper@hotmail.com) came back undeliverable? Perhaps you could email me laurakannon@ftc-i.net so I could get your new address.

Love from Mary Brooke in Atlanta (and oh, how I love to think of fires, read alouds, crisp days, books that are treasures). Another thing...I am so enjoying "Read For the Heart" that I read about here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-61191985600504369222010-07-23T19:10:49.347-06:002010-07-23T19:10:49.347-06:00Thank you for the uplifting post.

Character development, servants hearts,and Bible time are my focus. Diligence with the academics and don't forget to make it fun. I often have to remind myself!If we are faithful, God will fill in the gaps. What a blessing you are to others!

We took 3 months off this year to move and now we are trying to finish all the loose strings which will probably not be finished by the time I want to start the new school year on August 2nd. But it is almost a form of escape to plan and think about "then". I need to be "here" much more. Thanks so much!

I am in the sixth decade of my life. It is tempting at this stage to consider coasting" a bit - to sort of sit back and let others do the hard work. But I know the Father would not have me do that. I know He wants me to finish well. Perhaps the things I do will look different at this season of life, but I want to do what He has planned for me. I want to do it well.<br />Thank you for this sweet girl.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937532276250199445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-4009341610190546032010-07-20T13:27:39.892-06:002010-07-20T13:27:39.892-06:00thank you sweet Elise. i need this desperately. ...thank you sweet Elise. i need this desperately. we started a new math program half-way through the year, and we need to finish it to be on track for next year. some days it is so hard, when everyone else is on break, and i wonder if i am being too hard on my daughter by making her press on. so the Lord used you to strengthen my heart and give me the courage to finish well.allihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499112054494120945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-39768199042999890882010-07-20T13:14:20.503-06:002010-07-20T13:14:20.503-06:00What a beautiful and encouraging post!

...Beautiful! <br />Thanks for the encouragement, Elise! <br /><br />We too are working towards some yet unreached goals hanging on from "last year". <br /><br />I rarely jump in here and tell you but I treasure your writing. God has spoken to me so many times during my time spent here. <br /><br />Thank you!Rebecca Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17359746807137905049noreply@blogger.com
