Torah I went over to Restoration of Torah Mimistries and downloaded the children’s parsha study. This week, we have been studying Rebekah at the well. I love this story. It was the theme of the sermon at our wedding. The study is laid out very nicely. It tells you which verses to read, and then […]

Rubber boot homeschool week #7
This week I would like to write about spontaneity. Homeschooling is a beautiful thing, because it allows for spontaneity.
