Warm Up with a Chenille Wrap from Linens 'n Things - 2 for $8 - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 01:34 PM I got the red ones. I see all these beautiful sage and brown tone living rooms in design magazines, and think I need a change of decor! The Body Shop: Make-up and Other Beauty Products for a Buck - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 01:32 PM Looks like they took off the free shipping :-(. That sometimes happens when they get inundated. The shipping is not too bad, but it changes the deal from "hot" to "warm". How Homework Led to Homeschooling (part 2) - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 01:21 PM "However, unless your child understands the concepts presented in the homework assignments, they are not doing enough homework." Good point. Only PERFECT practice makes perfect. Chocolate Tours: Fun and Free - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 01:13 PM Chocolate! Why'd you have to go and say that? LOL. We toured the Hershey chocolate factory in Pennsylvania. It was pleasant. Free samples :-D. More fun was that it dumps you into their huge store afterward! Why We All Need a Sabbath - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 03:55 AM Excellent points, Melissa! I used to live in a town that was closed on Sundays. Almost every business was shut down for the day. The only one I know that does that any more is Chick-Fil-A. May I See Your Passport Please - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 03:50 AM You're not kidding about the US being the only ones to worry about being PC. Every time we've gone through Narita, 100% of black men traveling alone get the full treatment. I really feel sorry for the sailors flying commercial as their whole neatly packed to the brim seabags get dumped on a table, rifled through, then left for THEM to repack! It happened every time. California Considers Banning Spanking - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 03:03 AM "I spank Tyler when necessary and I don't think anyone has a right to dictate if I should spank my child. " That's the crux right there. Whether I agree with how you're raising him or not, I don't have the right to tell you that you MUST do it my way. Scary thought, though, eh? If You Really Want My Opinion, Perhaps You Should Not Homeschool - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 02:35 AM Beautifully written post, and an important thing to remember. Where Did the Notion of Unschooling Come From? - Blog Entry19 Jan 2007 02:04 AM Valorie, I find unschooling to be contrary to Scripture. We are RELAXED schoolers. I think the difference is where does the final authority lie? Who makes that ultimate decision as to education? The unschooling definition is providing the children a rich environment and then getting out of the way (okay, that's a paraphrase). Children need a balance of what they want to learn and what they need to learn. Either extreme is wrong IMHO. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 |
