Groundhog says Spring is coming...Almanac says snow




We have been using the 2011 Farmer's Almanac in our study of weather this year. So far the Almanac has been about 50% which has been better than our local weather team. Now Phil says spring is on the way. What do you think?

Flubber and Forgiveness


We have been using Erica's @ Confessions of a Homeschooler Character Study series based on Diligence to supplement our church bible study. It is meshing very well with regular studies and Ironhide loves the weekly challenges.

Today we were discussing Jonah and his journey. In his adventure Bible it discussed how God forgives and the experiment was to throw a super ball. No matter hard you throw it always bounces back. Like God no matter what the sin God forgives over and over again.

Ironhide's face lit up and he says, "God's forgiveness is like Flubber in the movie. It never stops!"


That made my day. :-)

Wordless Wednesday: Snowschooling Tool


Caffeine!

But only for the teacher/principal/bus driver and lunch lady. NONE for students.
No matter how deep the snow our Starbucks is always open.
