I have found over the years I have taken a certain position on a Scripture and just filed it away in the “this is what I [...]

The other day I shared some of the books we use for homeschooling. Today I want to share some of the CD Roms we have used.
We have used CD Roms to supplement our book work. We have found this useful to reinforce some of the lessons that the kids have learned. It also gives them [...]

It is 12 months ago today that we packed up the car and a big moving truck and headed up Great Eastern Highway to start our new life in Merredin. For us it has been a great 12 months. We have all learned a lot in the process, grown a lot and had lots of [...]
