In 2019, I went back to school full time. For that reason, I decided not to set a reading goal at the beginning of the year. I still read quite a few books, but not as many as usual, due to having to write A LOT of papers over the year. Sorry to say, but …
The Apologetics Study Bible Review
I've had this Bible for several months. I've been using it in my personal devotion time to get a feel for it and see what I think about it. Now, I'm ready to give you my full review. I have the hardcover version, but it also comes in a hardcover thumb-indexed version, an eBook version, …
2017-2018 Morning Basket Curriculum Review
You can find the post of my plans here. This was my first year incorporating a morning basket into our homeschool routine. It was something I picked up from Charlotte Mason homeschoolers.

ESV Illuminated Bible Review
I might be a little bit of a Bible fanatic. I am always looking at the new Bibles coming out soon and admiring them.

2014 Books In Review
I'll admit it, I did not read very much in 2014. I honestly don't know what happened. I just had a slow reading year. I ended up reviewing a bunch of non-book products (crib sheets, stroller, baby carriers, vacuum, toys, etc.). But I did read, on average more than one book per month. Here they …
2013 Books
I wanted to read more in 2013. I really did. But then it just didn't happen. Something about having a baby threw my number of books read this year way, way down. Boo. 4 out of 5 stars I read this book last January in an attempt to organize my house again. I never ended …
Freelance Reviewing
I have been doing quite a bit of review work lately. (Companies send me free stuff in exchange for an honest review.) I haven't been reviewing the items on my blog, because really, I didn't want to bore my readers. However, I will now be adding reviews to my blog for a couple reasons. First, …
Reading A Lot
My camera is still broken. I'm not sure when I'll get it fixed. I'm not blogging for the kids until I replace it. I won't be blogging here as much until it is replaced. Not sure when that will be. But I have been reading bunches! Peeps by Scott Westerfeld After reading Uglies, Pretties, Specials, …
