Blogger was moderating them and I didn't know it, so it took me a while to get them. :) <br /><br />I'm moving to WordPress soon - and am looking forward to how the comment section over there is so much more interactive.<br /><br />Make sure that you have your feed burner rss follow set to www.sprittibee.com so you will be able to find me again when I'm moved!Sprittibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992769339576987845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-59147531701544164252012-01-27T01:17:02.226-06:002012-01-27T01:17:02.226-06:00I accidentally stumbled upon your blog while searc...I accidentally stumbled upon your blog while searching for KONOS ideas, and like the KONOS post from 2005 (!) enough to wonder if your blog was updated, and if you were still homeschooling, etc. ( yeah, I'm nosey like that!) so I started back at the latest post, and started reading backwards, until I got to this post. And what I am reading has stopped me in my tracks, and brought tears to my eyes. It is so easy to feel overwhelmed by our jobs, that we forget that Jesus is right there, holding our hands through the rough times, bringing us peace in the noisiness around us. I am a homeschooling mom to three beautiful blessings, 9, 6, and 3. And there are days ( like today) when the phonics, and multiplication, and climbing on the table just seem like too much. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, ( and struggles) because they have been a great blessing to me today. I read lots of homeschooling blogs for ideas etc. And sometimes it feels like every other homeschool mom out there must be super- woman, because they have clean houses, and hot lunches, and (obviously) perfect school days, when I am doing good to have sandwiches at noon, and Daddy's work clothes washed. And maybe, just maybe the kids learned something in the chaos. So thank you for reminding me that Jesus speaks peace in the storm.Amyhttp://3lilmonsters.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-89652452308517406052012-01-02T23:30:07.228-06:002012-01-02T23:30:07.228-06:00AMEN, Heather!!

Just tonight I realized what I should be praying for - peace that passes all understanding. Even when so much is going wrong right now, I need to have peace in knowing that God is still in control and hopefully I will be able to look back at this point in my life and see His fingerprints in my situation. May you have a blessed new year resting in His peace.Adenahttp://foodfunandfotos.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-60642022823519660462012-01-01T19:06:02.390-06:002012-01-01T19:06:02.390-06:00Your post is so inspirational!
