| Topics: | homeschooling, teaching, homemaking |
| Description: | This blog is written by a former feminist who, by God's amazing grace, counts it a joy to be the wife of one funny dude and the mother of two rambunctious boys. I share from the heart about how we are growing in grace, loving each other, and schooling our children at home. During the school year, I write five regular articles. On Not Me Mondays, I write about the funny things that we don't do. I offer practical advice passed down by a family of educators and gleened over 20 years of teaching experience on Teaching Tip Tuesdays. On Wisdom Wednesdays, I share the lessons God is teaching me or a testimony of how He is working in our lives. On Thrifty Thursdays, I pass on a homemaking tip or recipe that works for me. I end the week with Fridays in Review. This year, I will be sharing product reviews as a member of the 2009-2010 TOS Homeschool Crew. During the summer, I tackle a special writing project. During the summer of '09, I am writing the "Plan-It School" series in which I am sharing ideas for preparing for the upcoming school year. |

Our New Pet Beta
Poor Wally Is Dead
Saturday was a day of tears at the Olive Plants house.Wally the fish died.Actually, he died on Monday, Wilbur's birthday. There was no way I was telling the resident animal lover that the pet fish went bottom up on that day. I left poor, dead Wally in the tank, hoping no one would notice.On Tuesday, I completely forgot about the dead beta. I'll blame it on the sugar rush from the birthday cookie followed by the withdrawal crash. Sugar intake does weird things to a dieter. Even though he was positioned sideways on the bottom of the bowl, the boys did not realize Wally was dead. They even continued to feed him.On Wednesd
