Dr. Dh and I will be part of a panel on homeschooling tomorrow from 2-4 p.m. at Memorial Lutheran. We've been collecting questions from newbies and those interested in homeschooling for various reasons. If you or someone you know what's inspiration, resources and ideas on education that goes beyond the norm please invite them!

It was a busy week, full of too much too do and the lot of us fighting something viral in the form of headaches, fevers and runny noses. On top of it all, the weather was cyclothymic and went from 50 degrees to blizzard conditions and back again.

The redemptive event of the week was a litter of kittens. Missy, our lottery cat, won at the fair, is the proud Momma of 6 little cuties, and had the good sense to come on the back-porch and deliver in the box Flower set out for her, instead of in the howling storm outside. It's been cold outside, so they are in. I am so cool I am letting them stay in till it warms up and taking allergy meds by the boatload to compensate.

Along with over 60 bloggers, I'll be participating next week in 5 day Blog Hop. Next week is an everything goes kind of week so the topics run the gamut and will included tons of give-away's. My series will is titled 

The Working Woman's Guide to Homeschooling. 

I've had the opportunity to talk with many homeschoolers who are working part and full time and have some great stuff lined up!

Went to a Peasch (Passover) presentation by Chosen People ministry. The mnemonics are powerful reminders of God's love for us, His unfailing knowledge of how we need to go over the basics again and again and how His story is woven throughout History so thoroughly that the two are inseparable. Great, great stuff. Links to Passover resources here
