In good writing, words become one with things.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The people who influence us most are not those who buttonhole us and talk to us, but those who live their lives like the stars in heaven and the lilies in the field, perfectly simply and unaffectedly. Those are the lives that mould us. ~Oswald Chambers

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Cute Things the Kids Are Sayin'

Cute things the girls have said lately:

Aria: "Mom how do people who make light bulbs put the light in there?  The only one who is tall enough to reach the light is God because he made it."

Mommy and Avrielle: Mommy "How old are you Avrielle?"  Avrielle "Too old" ;) (She means 2 years old)

Aria and Avrielle: Aria "Avrielle, don't get into that cabinet.... Avrielle no you don't!"   Avrielle: "Ya I do!!"

A Great End to January

Well it's hard to believe but we are already at the end of January of the new year.   How time flies when you're having fun!    We have had a great month at the Johnson household.

Hello all!

We had a great first semester of kindergarten! I am still trying really hard to make sure we are doing the right curriculum and it seems like I daily second guess myself.   Aria is learning primary math and reading (thanks in many ways to my mom in helping me with the reading)  She is also doing: history, English, timeline (see below), Latin, bible, geography, science (we just completed the human body (It was literally like a mini college course on anatomy!!), music (theory and tin whistle and yes I hate teaching this part and pretty much rely on our group and Brendan for help with it!)  We dance around the kitchen constantly and do lots of wiggling in hopes of getting our jitters out.    She continues to study dance and is currently taking ballet and jazz.   We wanted to share just a little bit of what she is learning with those that we love.
