Below is a devotional article that my fourteen year old daughter, Victoria, wrote for our homeschool co-op’s newsletter, The HomesCool Hot Spot. Newsletter is offered as a class in which the students learn to interview for features and to write various styles of news articles. I thought I’d share it with all of you today.

My Father’s Business
I haven’t written much lately. My days are filled with children and their school work. One day a week we have a home-school co-op that we attend together.

Sometimes Life Is Hard
I have been absent from this blog far too long. Our internet was down for two weeks in September, and the very day it started working again, our laptop crashed. Suffice it to say, I have grown accustomed to our laptop.

I have home schooled the children for a total of three years since Andrew started school eleven years ago. The remaining years […] Read more…
An Addendum
I am a writer. When I am upset, I write. When my mind needs clarity, I write. When my mind refuses to rest and longs for expression, I write. So bare with me, and feel free to share your thoughts as well.
For those of you who read my post, Angry, this is a semblance of a […] Read more…
Raising Fathers
I am a mother to six sons. Six times I have been blessed to be the recipient of that precious guileless adoring love a son has for his mother. Six times I have gazed into those dark newborn eyes and been filled with wonder at this male child that came from me, this child of […] Read more…
