True, Barefoot. Schoolwork is NOT always fun! It is nice when we can find the fun in our days though. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your thoughts. I agree, prayer and following Him are key to finding success in homeschooling, as in life!

Oh, thank you, Cassie! It's a good reminder even for myself. We can so easily get distracted and discouraged along the way. Trying to keep my eyes on Him and press on, and within His plan for US!

LOVE your words, Jan! I wish someone had said that to me years ago. I have been home most of the time since my 14 yo was born (he was 1st) but my heart wasn't actually home until about 6 years ago. I was finally able to embrace the job that God has for me and I love it. I agree that my older ones have suffered some from my being away when they were younger, but we are all home together now, thankfully. An added bonus is that God has now brought me work that I can do from home, just a few hours a week that can be squeezed in here and there, doing something I love to do, which is to write! Who knew those years ago that it would come through obedience to what God was telling me back then? Thank you for speaking out and keep telling the younger women (I was one of them!), they need to know!

I've eaten at Ruby Tuesday twice within the last month. There was no offer of a credit card scan at the table, nor did I see any of the servers offering this to any other customers. Do you know if they are currently using a portable system? I also noticed that you said they made their announcement two years ago, but when researching myself, I found that their announcement was made in March of 2007, which was close to 5 years ago. Did they try it, then put an end to it?

I have been reading Ann's book. It is SO good. I have taken a bit of a break, but really need and want to get back to it. I normally keep my gifts list in a paper journal, but there are a few of the things I have been thankful for this week that I did post on my blog. I am new to your blog, and I look forward to reading and getting to know you!
