The Last Days Way Journal
Every homeschool family looks at Summer a bit differently. Some take long, full breaks; some hardly break at all. Our family falls somewhere in between. I view Summer as a time to work on skills that perhaps got put on the back burner during the previous school year. I also view Summer as a time […]
We have officially finished out the 2025-2025 school year, so this is the time of year where I get to come here and reflect. I personally enjoy coming back to these blog posts and reminding myself of what we accomplished and the memories we made. I also like to be share what we actually used […]
Lately, I’ve been asked to share how our family ultimately decided to go with a stricter Charlotte Mason philosophy as opposed the more eclectic Charlotte Mason “leaning” philosophy that we held before. This decision has come with much thought and prayer. I was the girl who said I’d never be caught dead reading six volumes […]
This year has, without a doubt, been the most successful homeschooling year yet. What’s laughable about that fact is that our life has also never been more full of uncertainty. We are currently living with my parents in a very small, quaint townhome where we have very little space for schooling. 95% of our materials […]
In my latest blog post, I shared our 3rd grade and Kindergarten curriculum and resources. A few of you reached out to me and said, “I’m so inspired, but also overwhelmed!” First, I want to say this: you will always be overwhelmed if you are doing something that the Holy Spirit doesn’t have for YOUR […]
The Holy Spirit has been so clear with what He wants our family to focus on this year. I’m not immune to the onslaught of FOMO when everyone starts sharing what they’re using- but knowing that we’ve heard His voice keeps us laser focused and content. When I wrote A Spirit-led Guide to Homeschooling, I […]
For our family, Spring and Summer plans look like tying up the loose ends of our Fall and Winter subjects, while also implementing new and fun plans for the warmer months. During the Autumn and Winter, we focused on these subjects. By the time Spring came along, we had already completed our Around the World […]
Ever since my home education journey began back in 2019, I’ve noticed a huge gap in the homeschool community online. While many in the Christian homeschool space would speak of the Holy Spirit being the initiator of their desire to homeschool, I didn’t see many discussing the need for the Holy Spirit in the curation […]
Discipling our children can look just like what Jesus did with His disciples. Instead of saying, “repeat after me,” His invitation was, “Follow Me. Come and See.” The disciples’ lives were swept up in watching Jesus love and serve His Father. Watching Him tend to the needs of the sick. Watching Him stop for the […]
One of the most common things I hear from women who desire to homeschool, but feel hesitant is that “they are not patient enough.” You may have said, or at least thought, the very same thing. But just for a moment, I’d like to pose a new idea.. Perhaps you aren’t seeing patience actualized at […]
