I am thankful that God's mercies are new every morning!
I don't have to rely on yesterday's mercy for today's troubles.
What God gives is fresh, timely, and relevant for right now, this moment, TODAY.

Our 2011-2012 Curriculum
This pregnancy has really put me behind schedule in a lot of areas of my life. When the goal of the day is to attempt to be out of bed for more than 2 hours and try to cook at least one meal without puking, one can see how some items related to homeschooling would be put on the backburner.
I am tardy in recording our 2011-2012 Curriculum by a mere 3 months. *cough, cough*
Pish-posh, right?
For the record, we have been educating our boys in the midst of moving halfway around the world, a pukey but precious pregnancy (in which I now feel great!), (me) freaking out (only slightly) about a certain child's venture into puberty, and the usual how can we start the new year when we haven't quite finished up last year?! debate within myself.
Onward, shall we? :)

I do have a question for y'all.
We have Rosetta Stone Japanese Level 1 that I would like to implement, as tourism from Japan is a major economic force here in Guam. Have any of y'all done two foreign languages at the same time? Thoughts, please?

isaiah 26:3
Do you need peace in your heart? Are you discontent, worried, or weary?
Quit trusting in yourself and put your trust in our mighty God, the Lord of peace, Jehovah-Shalom!
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

isaiah 52:7
Believe it or not, this is Hong Kong... the view from the Peak when you are facing away from the city!
Sometimes we all need to turn away from our busy lives and seek solitude. It is then that we can hear the still small voice of our mighty LORD.

to a Summer-land
The little birds trust God, for they go singing
From northern woods where autumn winds have blown,
With joyous faith their trackless pathway winging
To summer-lands of song, afar, unknown.
Let us go singing, then, and not go sighing:
Since we are sure our times are in His hand,
Why should we weep, and fear, and call it dying?
'Tis only flitting to a Summer-land.
-Anon.
Jesus said unto her,I am the resurrection,and the life:he that believeth in me,though he were dead,yet shall he live:And whosoever liveth and believeth in meshall never die.
