    I like your idea here to memorize a book. This keeps the verse in context and keeps in mind who the writer was talking to. I have not done this before, so the idea sounds interesting to me.

    I started trying to memoirze verses from the bible when I was about 11 or 12, I think, and now our five and seven year old are working on it. We were involved in the A.W.A.N.A.S. program for three years and our family focus was scripture memrory. We use Rod and Staff curriculum for our home school text books and we get more scripture memory and digging in with the reading program.

    I suppose my point in sharing is that I like this idea and may try it, but for now my plate is full with how we are doing things. Thank you for the new idea in my pack though, I really appriciate it.

    Have a blessed day and thank you again. Sincerely, Mommy of two growing blessings & so much more!

    I read this on my phone and tried to comment!! I gave up!! I was waiting for my daughter while she took a College Plus exam. I read another blogger’s idea for memorizing (Gail, over at Bible Love Notes, I believe) she is going to read a chapter once every hour for eight hours each day for five days. Since I had time while I was waiting and the day was half gone, I read the first chapter of Colossians 8 times. I have been struggling with memorizing and haven’t gotten very far.

"Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣ ⁣ Very lar "Home is the true wife's kingdom. ⁣
⁣
Very largely does the wife hold in her ⁣
hands, as a sacred trust, the happiness ⁣
and the highest good of the hearts that ⁣
nestle there. In the last analysis, home ⁣
happiness depends on the wife. ⁣
⁣
Her spirit gives the home its atmosphere. ⁣
⁣
Her hands fashion its beauty. ⁣
⁣
Her heart makes its love. ⁣
⁣
And the end is so worthy, so noble, so divine, ⁣
that no woman who has been called to be a wife, ⁣
and has listened to the call, should consider any⁣
price too great to pay, to be . . .⁣
 the light,⁣
 the joy,⁣
 the blessing,⁣
 the inspiration, ⁣
of a home. ⁣
⁣
The woman who makes a sweet, beautiful home, ⁣
filling it with love and prayer and purity, is doing ⁣
something better than anything else her hands ⁣
could find to do beneath the skies.⁣
⁣
A true mother is one of the holiest secrets of ⁣
home happiness. God sends many beautiful things ⁣
to this world, many noble gifts; but no blessing is ⁣
richer than that which He bestows in a mother who ⁣
has learned love's lessons well, and has realized ⁣
something of the meaning of her sacred calling."⁣

Summer is a natural time for me to get off my rout Summer is a natural time for me to get off my routine of menu planning. In the winter, we're more apt to stick to a schedule, but summer brings about a more flexible and changing calendar. ⁣
⁣
I'm sharing some simple tips that have been a help to me and hopefully, they'll help you in planning your summertime meals. Menu planning is a time and money saver, and I don't know about you, but I would sure like to have more time to enjoy my summer months.⁣
