A Thousand Words

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

They say a picture says a thousand words..So I am going to try to make A Thousand Words a regular post..When I take a picture that says something I'll post it. You tell me what it says to you.

This first pic is one I took this summer when we took dd6 and ds2 to ride the real Thomas the Train.

What it says to me: Magic...pure magic!

About Me

Sheryl
I am a dreamer at heart, a believer in Christ but hopelessly flawed, a lover of simple things and simple ways, a mother trying to grow her kids, a wife to a hard working, honest man, a misfit of sorts in many ways, a wanna be potter, painter, writer, and gardener, and a homeschooler and I'm all of these things while I'm trying to find my way.

My Hopes and Dreams

My hopes and dreams for our school are as follows.

To be a learning enviroment that fosters curiosity, sparks creativity, emphasizes diligence, demands respect, reaches for excellence, and thrives on love and laughter.
To train up our kids in God's Holy Word; teaching them of His whole character..His love, His wrath, His mercy, His grace, His sovereignty, His truth.
To develop well rounded kids that gain the necessary skills they need to follow and reach their dreams. To do my part in teaching them to be kind people, good citizens, active Americans, and appreciative of all that God has blessed us with.
To be a mom and teacher that is patient, gentle, loving, understanding, organized, thorough, excited, ever learning and deserving of the two precious souls you see below.
