This is the sound of our home. ❤️ Ryan playing his This is the sound of our home. ❤️ Ryan playing his guitar, singing, and praising the Lord. From morning to evening, there is almost always a song coming from him. Sometimes he even sings in his sleep! 😂 Worship is so much a part of who he is, and I love getting to live alongside it. Last Sunday, our pastor’s dad asked me where Hadassah got her gift of singing. I told him, “Ryan sings night and day!” Now Ariella is also leading worship, and it brings me so much joy to watch our daughters use their voices to praise the Lord. They have grown up hearing their daddy worship through ordinary days, and now I get to hear their own songs rising to the Lord. What a beautiful blessing. “I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” — Psalm 34:1, KJV “From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’S name is to be praised.” — Psalm 113:3, KJV It is so good to live in a house where worship fills the air. Thank You, Lord, for the music, for this family, and for the joy of praising You together. 🤍 #Worship #PraiseHim #thankfulgratefulblessed
I knew my daughter loved Greek mythology. But I ha I knew my daughter loved Greek mythology. But I had no idea how much she knew until we unexpectedly found ourselves in Athens. 🥹 Last year, our flights from Rome to Tel Aviv were canceled, and we had to reroute through Athens and buy new tickets to Israel. Greece wasn’t part of our plan, but what a blessing God had waiting for us! Places we had read about in history books came to life, and my youngest daughter could hardly contain her excitement! She told and retold stories about the Greek gods and goddesses, connecting her reading with everything we were seeing. I kept thinking, “How do you KNOW all of this?” 😂 I hadn’t studied Greek mythology with her. She had pursued it herself through her love of the classics. The Odyssey is her favorite book! Here was the self-education Charlotte Mason spoke about, unfolding before my eyes. By the end of that unexpected trip, she had decided she wanted to study classical archaeology. This year, she’s been diving deeper into those studies. ❤️ When my friend Leah Boden spoke about the “gallery of the mind” at our Charlotte Mason Inspired Conference this year, it brought me to tears. I remembered my daughter’s sparkling eyes and all those stories she had carried within her before I realized how much was there. Charlotte Mason encouraged us to consider how much our children care, beyond how much they know. Oh, I could see how deeply she cared! After years of sowing through books, conversations, and ordinary homeschool days, what a joy to glimpse the harvest—to see what has taken root and where those living ideas might lead. God gave me that glimpse through a trip I never would have planned. Do you study Greek mythology in your homeschool? Have your teens read Homer’s Iliad or Odyssey—or do they know every lyric of EPIC: The Musical? 😂 Tell me I’m not the only mom with a Greek mythology enthusiast at home! #CharlotteMason #HomeschoolLife #HomeschoolingTeens #GreekMythology #livingbooks
Oh, how I love my daughters! 🧡 And how happy I am Oh, how I love my daughters! 🧡 And how happy I am to finally be back home with my kids! British Columbia is absolutely breathtaking right now. The trees are changing colors, the blueberry bushes have turned this stunning deep red, and everywhere I look, there’s something beautiful to take in. Add sunshine, a pumpkin patch, and these two making me laugh, and my mama heart is full! 🍂 There’s a new season unfolding around us, and I feel it in our family too. The Lord is giving us new beginnings, and we’re rejoicing in all the changes. Ryan and I keep looking at our kids in awe. These little people we’ve spent years teaching, nurturing, praying over, and walking beside are becoming intelligent, mature, independent young adults. I love hearing their thoughts, watching them take initiative, and seeing them step into new responsibilities with confidence. After 15 years of homeschooling, discipleship, and parenting, this truly feels like a harvest season. We’re tasting the fruit of so many ordinary days spent reading together, having conversations, learning, praying, trying again, and trusting the Lord with their hearts. There is still so much ahead, and I’m thankful we get to keep walking beside them. But right now, I just want to pause and enjoy who they are becoming—and thank God for His faithfulness through every season. Home with my children, surrounded by autumn beauty, with a heart full of gratitude. Thank You, Lord, for this precious season. 🤎 #homeschooling #homeschoolmom #charlottemasoninspired #homeeducation #fallseason
The turbulence on this flight has been brutal and The turbulence on this flight has been brutal and I’m here scavenging around “where are my Israelis?” Just in case. 🤣 But seriously! Prayers please.🙏🏼
Yesterday I had an amazing lunch with my mom and m Yesterday I had an amazing lunch with my mom and my brother at one of our favorite Brazilian restaurants in Deerfield Beach. I was so excited to eat real food, y’all! I had to eat super carefully, especially that it was right before my follow up appointment, but it was sooo good! 😊 That picanha steak was so juicy and soft. That Piamontese rice… oh my goodness! So delicious! And that fried polenta!!! Crispy on the outside and melting inside. After a week of blended soups and liquids, food never tasted so good! 😊 I’m still on the mending. I still have to eat soft foods for another week and be careful with those stitches, but savouring a piece of steak yesterday gave me a boost. The follow up went well but not the way I’ve planned. 🫣Apparently my follow up visit was booked for NEXT week and my dentist wasn’t even there yesterday! And I’m flying home on Friday thinking the appointment was this week. There was no way I could change my plane tickets for the third time and stay longer - no way! I’ve been away from my children and my house for three weeks now. The good news is that I’m healing really well, everything looked great and no signs of infections. The bad news is that I’m still in a lot of pain and missing just one dose of Tylenol left me in tears last night. (So much PTSD from having Trigeminal Neuralgia.)😳 Because of that, I’ll have to continue taking doxycycline, ibuprofen 800, and Tylenol. The last thing I need is to get home 3000+ miles away and have to hop back on a plane again in pain. So please pray for speedy healing. Today I’m packing and saying goodbye to some friends. I’m enjoying the last 24 hours with my mom who has been taking such good care of me for almost two weeks, but so looking forward to hugging my babies soon! I’m so thankful for my in-laws to be taking such good care of our children, our dogs, and our house. That’s no small task for them! And I can’t wait to sleep in my bed again! 🙌🏼😁🙏🏼
