Comments on: A New Year and a New Start http://lovinghim4ever.homeschooljournal.net/2008/01/01/a-new-year-and-a-new-start/ And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.--Deut 6:5 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 00:02:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=wordpress-mu-1.2.4 By: Renae http://lovinghim4ever.homeschooljournal.net/2008/01/01/a-new-year-and-a-new-start/#comment-4387 Renae Tue, 01 Jan 2008 16:31:42 +0000 http://lovinghim4ever.homeschooljournal.net/2008/01/01/a-new-year-and-a-new-start/#comment-4387 Thank you so much for sharing this. I am glad you are finding peace again. The verses especially spoke to my heart. I have been reevaluating how we "do school" during Christmas break. I want to give my son the opportunity to be more self governed. For history and literature based subjects we can work for quite awhile, but I think math, spelling, and handwriting need to be done in short, consistent rhythms. I try to cram too much in one lesson, because I feel like we are behind. Thanks again for the reminder that it is not in my time, but the Lord's. I am so happy you are enjoying your new year! Blessings to you! Thank you so much for sharing this. I am glad you are finding peace again.
