Rule of Law Reigns; Scott, Tea Party Unhappy

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) has concluded that three Florida Supreme Court Justices up for merit retention did not violate state law when they used a court employee to notarize campaign documents. State Attorney Willie Meggs wrote a letter to FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey informing him that no charges would be filed in the case, effectively ending the investigation ordered by Rep. Scott Plakon (R-Longwood) and referred by Governor Rick Scott. Scott and other Tea Party supporters were unhappy with the ruling though, as it meant they would be unable to replace Justices Lewis, Pariente, and Quince with their own harmonious nominations.

Meggs was resolute in his letter, saying “common sense should be used in deciding cases” and that “In this case, notarizing a signature is a minor act which was likely accomplished in less than a minute.” He continued further, saying that at most the violation by the judges was “minor…It is well established that the law does not concern itself with trifles.” According to the Orlando Sentinel, two lawyers for the justices also said that the judges had “cooperated fully with FDLE during the investigation, and were certain there was no impropriety nor violation of any law.”

Governor Scott responded sarcastically, saying “According to FDLE findings, it appears using state employees to complete and file campaign forms and other documents is ‘common practice.’ Now this case is before the courts where a determination will be made as to whether this ‘common practice’ is legal. Whatever the ruling, we will accept it and act accordingly.” This bitterness is illustrative of the stance Rick Scott has taken since the merit retention fight heated up, that of an instigator. Throughout this process, Scott has haphazardly defended partisan politics and taken the side of special interests against the rule of law.

The bipartisan group Defend Justice from Politics, mentioned in a previous post, responded with a scathing criticism of Governor Scott’s assessment of the investigation’s outcome. “Before the investigation was completed, he was on the record with his own determination of guilt – leveraging the mere existence of an investigation he choreographed to further smear the Justices with suggestions that they ‘ought to follow the law.’ Now he appears ready to reject the State Attorney’s conclusion that no law was violated, giving greater credence to a lawsuit filed by partisan ideological out-of-state lawyers funded by special interests. Governor Scott makes a habit of ignoring any outcomes that don’t play to his advantage. A fair and impartial judiciary is our last defense against politicians who will be satisfied with nothing short of absolute power.”

Although the investigation by the FDLE has been closed, the fight is not entirely over. A conservative Georgia-based organization, the Southeastern Legal Foundation, has file a lawsuit on behalf of two Florida residents claiming that without the notarization from court officials, the three judges would not be allowed on the November ballot. The lawsuit is seeking to force Secretary of State Ken Detzner from placing the three Justices on the ballot, effectively removing them from the bench and allowing Scott to nominate his own like-minded judges.

Aside from a very small minority of Tea Party-backed ideologues, much of Florida and the legal community have risen to the defense of the three justices up for merit retention. It is unmistakably clear that partisan beliefs and desires are fueling these inane attacks on the merits of these well-respected justices, and many groups have come forward to fight this campaign of misinformation and deafening rhetoric. Given Governor Scott’s acrimonious response to the Department of Law Enforcement’s decision not to file charges against the justices, it is obvious that the opponents of the bench have no respect for the rule of law. Although this fight will likely continue, the residents of Florida would be wise to ignore this background noise and make an educated decision. With full information and an understanding of the process, it is abundantly clear that Justices Lewis, Pariente, and Quince objectively deserve a “yes” on merit retention.

'Sad We'll Have an Embassy in Cuba Before J'lem'

Republican candidate denounces Obama's plan to open an embassy in Cuba before moving the Israeli embassy to Jerusalem.

Elad Benari ,

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz (R-TX) denounced President Barack Obama’s decision to open an embassy in Cuba before Washington has an embassy in Jerusalem.

“How sad is it that under the Obama administration the United States is going to have an embassy in Havana before we have an embassy in Jerusalem?” Cruz said Wednesday’s on the Hugh Hewitt Show, in remarks reported by the Breitbart website.

“I think this is a serious mistake. It’s a manifestation of the pattern of weakness and appeasement towards our enemies that has characterized the Obama-Clinton foreign policy,” said Cruz, a pro-Israel senator who declared in March he will be running for Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election.

“It’s the same pattern that occurred — that is occurring with regard to Russia, with regard to Iran, and it’s a very dangerous pattern,” he continued.

“How sad is it that under the Obama administration the United States is going to have an embassy in Havana before we have an embassy in Jerusalem, that this administration will be friendlier to a Communist dictator who hates America and seeks to undermine our nation, than it is willing to stand with our close friend and ally, the nation of Israel? I think it’s wrong,” stated Cruz.

“The Castros are continuing to imprison and torture people. They have no political rights. And all of the money going there is just propping up a cruel dictatorship that hates America, and that is 90 miles away from America. And it’s an example — consistently under the Obama-Clinton foreign policy, we have abandoned our friends and allies, whether it is the UK, whether it’s Canada, whether it’s Israel, and we have shown weakness and appeasement to our enemies,” he charged.

Cruz’s comments came as Obama formally announced that the United States and Cuba would open embassies in each other’s capitals, branding the move “a historic step forward in our efforts to normalize relations with the Cuban government and people”.

The U.S. and Cuba have been negotiating the re-establishment of embassies following a surprise announcement in December that secret talks between the global foes had led to a landmark agreement.

Cruz, along with Senator Dean Heller (R-NV), recently drafted a law that would remove the president's authority to invoke national security as a reason to ignore Congressional resolutions on moving the embassy to Jerusalem.

According to the measure, called the Jerusalem Embassy and Recognition Act of 2015, the White House would be required to identify Jerusalem as the capital of Israel even before the embassy is physically moved.

In 1995, both the Senate and House overwhelmingly passed the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995, which required the relocation of the American Embassy to Israel from its current location in Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. That law was passed with a proviso that allowed the President to, at his discretion, postpone the move on the basis of “National Security” concerns, which would be reviewed on a yearly basis. That proviso has been activated every year since the original Act was passed.

Cruz has pushed strongly for greater American support of Israel, telling Arutz Sheva at an Israel Day event in New York City last June that "the friendship between Israel and America is and should be unbreakable," while calling "the prospect of Iran gaining nuclear weapons capability" as "the gravest threat to both" countries.

He was one of the senators who recently sent a letter to Iran warning that a bad nuclear deal with Obama would not outlast his presidency, after vocally supporting Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's warnings against the deal in Congress.

Hindutva supporters beat up journalists at event to convert 14 ‘Muslims’ to Hindusim in Kolkata

Police in Kolkata have arrested a right-wing Hindutva leader after his supporters beat up media persons in Kolkata when they tried to speak to the ‘Muslim family’ the outfit claimed to have converted to Hinduism at a special event.

A senior police officer said that they had arrested Tapan Ghosh along with his three other supporters after for attacking journalists, who tried to speak to the ‘Muslim family.’

“Hindu Samhati chief Tapan Ghosh and three other activists have been arrested in the case of assault on media persons in Kolkata on Wednesday evening,” Joint Commissioner of Kolkata Police (Crime) Praveen Kumar Tripathi was quoted as saying by IANS.

Ghosh had earlier claimed that 14 members of a Muslim family had converted to Hinduism at a special function. He was seen welcoming the ‘Muslim family’ by chanting slogans in Bengali. One of the speakers at the event was Major General (Retd) GD Bakshi, a known RSS supporter and proponent of Hindutva ideology.

State Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee condemned the attack on journalists and said strict action would be taken against the offenders. Trinamool Congress Secretary General Partha Chatterjee said, “The media has every right to work independently. The way they (Hindu Samhati) attacked and heckled the media persons today is deplorable. I demand strict administrative action against the fringe elements.”

Interestingly, the state unit of the BJP distanced itself from Wednesday’s attack on media.

“Media is one of the pillars of democracy. They should not be attacked like this. Different organisations can have different philosophy. If they do not like the media’s point of view, they can ignore it but such attacks on media is condemnable,” Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh was quoted by IANS.

Meanwhile, police have promised to look into the report of the so-called conversion.

“Those being converted, are they being converted willingly? The media has the right to ask. It’s shocking that reporters who went to ask that question were stopped and beaten,” poet Joy Goswami was quoted by NDTV.

CPM lawmaker Sujan Chakraborty said, “The Samhati must have been doing something really wrong. Which is why, when the press enquired about it, they became violent.”

"Rooted" is a course I have written to help the Christian more firmly plant their faith and life in the Bible. It covers the whole range of Christian beliefs and what it means to live by them.

There are 18 studies which could be studied in a number of ways:

1) One a day could be done privately, covering six a week over three weeks.
2) You could meet with another Christian once every week or so to dicuss two or three at a time - so requiring six or nine times meeting together.
3) If you have a teenager, you could do this with them.
4) You could look at them this way in your community group over six or nine weeks.

Clear skies...

I woke up to fog and freezing temperatures,
 so the drive to church this morning was a bit treacherous.
The road was covered with frozen fog.
The hot cup of coffee I planned to sip on as I drove,
sat in the cup holder getting lukewarm while I white knuckled the steering wheel with both hands.
The long bridge across the Columbia River was up ahead,
and I just knew that it would be the iciest part of the drive.
But, halfway across the bridge, I drove right on out of the fog.
The roads became clear.

Sometimes circumstances leave us feeling lost in the fog,
We white knuckle our way through situations that feel treacherous.
Choosing to give thanks is like looking at the circumstances from up above the fog.
Suddenly, everything looks a bit more clear,
our footsteps feel more secure as we realize that no matter what we go through,
underneath us is the Rock, Christ Jesus.
And that is something to give thanks for.

Since 2009 I've been counting my blessings thanks to the prompting of Ann Voskamp.
 I continue to count my thanks
piling up gratitude day by day
in my little black journal.
(and capturing some of my blessings via my camera or iPhone)

-watercolor painting with the two oldest grands
-the grands watching "What Does the Fox Say" over and over and laughing each time
-the Hubs rubbing my aching neck and back while we watched a favorite show

-God's faithfulness to us in 2013
-our daughter 16 weeks along with our miracle grand baby
-dinner and games with friends

-these words on Julie Garmon's blog, "You'll never need more than I can provide."
-lots of free books for download from Beth Moore
-the whole family over on New Year's Day for a dinner of homemade shredded pork burritos
-the three oldest grands over for a sleepover

-only grandson asking me to say prayers with them before bed

-pancake and sausage breakfast with the grands

-taking three more boxes of stuff to the Goodwill as I work to get rid of excess stuff
-an amazing sunset!

-a date with the Hubs, totally planned and paid for by our youngest daughter for our Christmas present

-blue skies
-eating healthy and running after the overindulgence of the holidays
-these words, "I trust You, Jesus"

-driving out of the fog into blue skies on the bridge over the Columbia
-Mt. St. Helens so clear on the way to church, and Mt. Hood so gorgeous on the way home
-lunch with family and friends

gratefully yours,

Join the community of gratitude gatherers here...

  1. so glad you made it safely on the bridge that would really scare me.

    1. I wasn't really scared, just super cautious!

  2. Hey, that Vancouver sky! Maybe we snapped our pictures at the same time? So much to be grateful for--here's to safe driving. It was pretty icy/foggy up Seattle way this morning, too.

  3. Elizabeth...what lovely images of your blessings for the week! That pink sky was amazing!

    1. I was actually just bringing some boxes of stuff to the Goodwill when I captured that amazing sky. Love when God blesses us in the middle of our mundane!

  4. I say this all the time, but I love your lists! They always bless me and trigger blessings of my own over on this side of the continent!

  5. I must have missed the previous post telling about your future grandchild, congratulations to all. This is such happy news, God is so full of surprises. That is such a happy thought to start out the day, the gift of a child.

    1. Yes! We are so excited! We will know if it's a boy or a girl by the end of this month.

  6. I was glad I didn't have to drive in that freezing fog yesterday morning! What blessings God gives - even in the middle of rough spots, He keeps giving.

    1. The Hubs goes to the church by 6am, so he had warned me about the ice. Thankful for His safekeeping!

  7. Absolutely beautiful and I, like Ginger, love your lists! Love your blog too and thanks for sharing from your heart. Blessings upon blessings the Lord gives us.

    1. Thank you, Carol. The blessing has been mine in keeping the list. God has changed me through gratitude!

  8. Your gratitude and thanksgiving list is wonderful as always. (LOVED the date night part. What a nice gift.) My favorite part of this post, though, was the life lesson at the beginning with the white knuckles. So very, very true.

  9. I sure do wish we could meet one day. We have lots in common. Love you, my new and precious friend.

When I Was 9: The Baseball Player

by Linda Thieman, author, Katie & Kimble

Hi!  My name is Linda Thieman (pronounced TEE-mun).  I write the Katie & Kimble stories.

I wanted to share with you my favorite story from when I was 9 years old.  This is a true story.  It happened to me!

Right after I turned 8, my family moved to Minnesota.  Minnesota is a beautiful state in the midwest.  It is just south of Canada and just north of Iowa.

You may have heard of the Minnesota Twins baseball team.  There are two big cities in Minnesota – Minneapolis and St. Paul.  These cities are called the Twin Cities.  That’s how the Minnesota Twins got their name.

Well, we moved into a town that was near the Twins’ ballpark.  And, to my surprise, we met three Twins.  And I mean baseball players! They lived in our neighborhood!

Two pitchers lived nearby. The third baseman lived across the street from us. His name was Rich Rollins. He was an All Star.

Rich was a kind and friendly guy.  His family and my family became friends.

Rich lived across the street from us for two years.  During that time, he gave us a lot of free baseball tickets.  So, my family went to a lot of home games.  We sat right behind home plate!  Good seats!  At the same time, my dad taught me the game.

Well, when I was 9 and in fourth grade, I was also a Junior Girl Scout.  My troop was going to have a Father/Daughter Banquet.  Every girl would bring a box lunch.  Then, she and her father would eat that lunch together with all the other girls and dads.

Well, the day of the dinner was drawing near.  I was getting pretty excited.  It was a big deal.  Then, boom!  My hopes were dashed.  I found out that my dad couldn’t go with me.  He had to work and he was going to be out of town.  I was very disappointed.

But then, I got an idea.  I decided to ask Rich if he would go with me.  I got my courage together, and I knocked on Rich’s door.  When Rich came to the door, I invited him to go to the dinner with me.  He checked to see if he was free, and then he agreed!  I was so thrilled.

I must say, at the dinner the other “fathers” were pretty amazed!

I served Rich a dinner of fried chicken.  My mom made the chicken for me.  She also packed the dinner.  We also had salad and rolls.

To tell you the truth, I think after we ate, Rich was still hungry.  He was a big guy.  He needed lots of food!

Then, they started some music for dancing.  I asked Rich to dance, but he said no.  He said he was having trouble with his knees.  It’s true, no doubt.  But I also thought he was just shy.  Also, maybe he didn’t want all those other people to watch him!

But the funniest part of the day was this.  Rich and I had turned around in our chairs.  We were watching the dancing.  Then I saw a man watching us.  He was standing near a wall and taking pictures.

I said to Rich, “That man is taking your picture!”

And Rich said to me, “No, he’s taking YOUR picture!”

Rich was a funny guy.

Well, the man with the camera never spoke to us.  But a few days later, our picture was in the local paper.  Under the picture, it said, “Rich Rollins, 3rd baseman for the Twins, attends the Father/Daughter Banquet with his daughter.”

The newspaper thought I was Rich’s daughter!  Now THAT was funny!

I still have that old newspaper photo of Rich and me buried in a box somewhere.  If I ever find it, I will post it on the Katie & Kimble blog for you to see!
*Listen to an interview with Rich Rollins at here.*

BFS Assignment #100 - Oh What a Feeling

Memory Verse: Ephesians 4:19 KJV
Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

Assignment: Take time this week to write about YOU and your feelings of trials and triumphs with homeschooling. Touch on when you first heard about the concept of home schooling and whether you tip-toed into the idea or just jumped in and never looked back. Share your schooling as a child and how you compare it to what your goals are for your children.

Going to public school, I HATED it. I was a young 5 years old (born July 1st) when I first started school and I had issues all the way thru high school with wanting to stay home. I had a good group of friends but I always felt out of place. I can count on my hand how many football games I went to and I never went to a school dance. I don't know if it was me just being too shy or if it was because I was never pushed to do those things. BUT in the end I turned out pretty darn good (if I say so myself). I never tried drugs or had casual relationships. I wasn't ever a wild child. Did I miss out on some things? Probably, but I'm ok with that.

In my family, I had a second cousin who homeschooled her children. All 10 of them! The oldest is my age - 29 and the youngest I believe is around 7 or 8. You lose track after kid #5. :) Anyways, they were always very polite and well-spoken, and VERY smart. As they got older a few decided to go to public school. Another second cousin (sister to the cousin I was just writing about) who has a child my age (born March '79) tried to get my mother to hold me back a year like she was planning on doing to her daughter. She kept saying how she knew that us girls would do better in school if given time to grow a little before starting Kindergarten. My mom chose to send me on to school, while Sarah was kept out a year. I can't say the choice either parent made was wrong because it was the right one at the moment.

I first started thinking about homeschooling Gracie when she was around 3 years old. I knew that I wanted her to get a good education, but I also kept thinking about how young she was going to be when she would start Kindergarten. Where her birthday falls on August 13th, school in this area starts around August 26 or 27 - she would still be a baby to me. I approached the subject to Robby very wearily. He had extremely happy school years and was one of the "popular" kids. So he hasn't always been on board with the idea. I finally got him to agree with holding her out a year and letting me see how things went. This was only after he had gone to a vocational school state competition last April and saw a homeschooled girl there. He came home so impressed by her. He said he watched how she was so poised and well-educated. And of course socialized! He said all he could think of was one day that could be Grace. But now I'm scared, because I have this one shot to really make an impression and hopefully get him to see where I'm coming from.

How else do I feel about my choices so far? Besides scared? Worried and anxious are a close second. Oh, what have I gotten myself into?? Can I really do this? This is what goes through my head on a daily basis. I wonder if I have chosen the right path for her. All I want is for Gracie to have the best in life. Whatever that may be. I really don't want to screw this up. At times I feel really good about it. For instance, school started last Tuesday. I'm a member of a local moms group and a friend's son just started Kindergarten. This is a portion of what she had to say about his first day:

"And, she also said "Kindergarten isn't what kindergarten used to be - eating cookies, playing games and having nap time. MY kindergarten class will be at the Grade 2 level before the end of the year." Poor, poor Jonathan...And she said "homework EVERY NIGHT beginning at 15 minutes worth then working it's way up to 30 minutes EVERY NIGHT!"

Ok, so in 180 days of schooling we are suppose to jump from K to 2nd Grade? I'm all for learning but isn't that a bit extreme? AND homework after already being in school for 8 hours? Geez, no pressure on these kids, huh? These children are on an average only 5 1/2 years old. Stop pushing them to grow up so fast! I don't have a lot of support about my decision. I feel as if I'm being judged, even by strangers. When they ask Gracie if she's going to school she says "no, I do it at home" and they look confused and after I explain they act like I'm depriving her. I see it as allowing her more freedom to be herself. My family has tried to understand, I think. :) I really wanted my mom's approval. And I finally mentioned it to her about how I felt she didn't support me. She said she doesn't know how she feels about it yet. But that I had to live with my decision just like she had with hers.

So that's what I'm doing. Each day I continue to try to teach Gracie and when she learns something new and I watch her eyes light up, it is all worth it. I will keep praying that I am doing what is best and that this is what God has in store for my children and family.

Some pics....

Gracie loves arts & crafts. I think this looks amazingly like the chair on Blue's Clues.

Playing with counting bears.

Planting flowers...which sadly did not grow. :(

  1. I had all of those same feelings and sometimes still do. You are so right that K is not what it used to be. My mom will often ask me if my 1st grader is reading yet because "everyone elses" 1st grader is reading. This is now my standard answer "When she goes to college will they ask her on her admissions exam what grade she learned to read in? " "In a job interview will they ask her what grade she learned to read in?? NO! All they care is that she can...and she will when she is ready.

    Your doing great!! Keep up the good work.

    Mrs. Kerri
    BFS Teacher

  2. Hello~ GREAT post! Homeschooling is a lifestyle not just an overnight whim, so I think you're doing a great job and just take each day as it comes. I try to block out any negative comments from anyone, it is annoying though. I've only been homeschooling three years now. I noticed that in your post that I was nearing graduation when you were born! LOL Does that show my age too much?

    Mrs. Nancy
    BFS Teacher

  3. Thanks for stopping by. I know this will turn out to be a great year for you.~ Nikki

  4. Praying for you as you school. It is a hrd way to go when you feel like you have so suport system. Make sure you keep your heart open with god and your hubby.

  5. As hard as it is, as long as your hubby is on board that's all the support you need. I've had to learn that. We do have a REALLY great support group here, though, and at first I was hesitant to join in. I didn't want to feel the pressure of doing school the way others did. What I found is that everyone is different, and they are only encouraging when you find something new or different from them. I know you'll have a great year! Thanks for stopping by.

  6. What a wonderful post! I'm glad that your husband came around to homeschooling. Enjoy your homeschooling journey!

  7. You've asked all the questions that many of us have asked - should I? can I? will it be the right decision? Looking at the pictures of your daughter, I feel you have made all the right choices. She's a lovely little girl and will have so many more opportunities at home with you.

    Have a wonderful school year!

  8. Thank you for sharing...I can relate, that's for certain! I have yet to write my assignement, but please visit in a day or so to read it! :)

  9. Homeschooling is huge pressure. It's interesting that the public never has such a huge outcry if a child in public school is falling behind. If they got as upset over that as they do homeschooling, we'd have a lot less problems in public school.

    Good luck with your adventure.

  10. I am so excited for you and your daughter.
    I agree the public school expects too much too soon for the kids.
    We need to go back to letting kids be kids.
    This is one reason (among others) I am so glad our (soon to be 15) DS is home. He is still so naive and sweet. I shutter to think what PS High School would be like for him.
    Have a Great Year.

  11. I enjoyed reading your story. Your school years sound alot like mine. I didn't get into the dating, drugs, and alcohol scene.

    I'm sorry you don't have lots of family support. My parents were excited about it. With all the violence in schools these days, they were relieved when I told them. My inlaws were the polar opposite! They are slowly coming around though.

    You have lots of support with this group! Keep praying that God will guide you.

    Have a great day!

  12. I really enjoyed reading your post and could relate to many of your feelings! How wonderful that the Lord put a shining example of a homeschooled child in the path of your dh. My dh was hesitant at first, too. Your dd is beautiful-she has that bright-eyed eager to learn & excited about life look that the normal homeschooled child has! I think the most unexpected aspect of homeschooling that I have experienced is that not only are the children learning-but I am learning the most-not just academics-but life lessons from the Lord-that I didn't realize I needed to learn. LOL
    Have a blessed school year! Holly (applesofgold)

  13. I live in Florida and all they do is teach to test. They cram the kids full of so many facts and work all year at preparing them for the FCATs. I am amazed at how much homework our young neighbors come home with after working in school all day. It is entirely uncalled for if you ask me. I am so thankful we have the freedom and privledge to home school.

  14. I couldn't agree more. I just recently read that they are possibly giving math tests/standerized tests to Kinders. Isn't that a shame? What happened to the fun learning in the early years?!

    Good to meet you!

  15. I think our 5 yr olds would make great friends for each other!!

  16. Those feelings are all part of starting something "new and untried". When we first began, years ago, homeschooling was still very new. People (family included) constantly asked, "Is that legal?"

    Remember that they are not ultimately responsible for the training of your children...you and your husband are. SO their opinion can be filed away under "ultimately unimportant".

    It sounds like you're doing great! And your daughter is absolutely lovely!!! ;^)

  17. I agree with you-society is pushing these babies to be teens even before they are out of Kindergarten. Not good! I am sure it is why so many kids are burned out by the 5th grade. You are not alone-there are tons of us who support you. Your adventure is just beginning-enjoy every moment..it goes by very quickly!

  18. You are doing what's best for your daughter, so don't worry about what everyone else thinks (or says). You're doing great!! Have fun and enjoy the journey.

  19. Hello again! I wanted to add that I'm glad your husband came around. It is SUCH a help to have a husband's support! :)

  20. I have those same feelings you do about whether or not I can really do this. Will my children learn what they need in order to be productive adults. How can I possibly do this on my own. Then I stop and think ~ I can't do this on my own, but I can with the Lord's help!

    Thank you for sharing with us!

    ~ Kim

  21. Thanks for sharing your story! I love those "eyes lit up" moments! Praying you have a wonderful school year with many, many of those moments!! :)

  22. I have a son who has a close to the school year birthday as well and I couldn't imagine sending him off! Keep up the good work it is so worth it!

  23. I enjoyed reading this. Those are cute pics of your daughter. I too hated the public school, especially as I got older.

  24. I think many of us doubt our decision from time to time. During those times I cling to the promise that I can do ALL things through Christ who gives me strength. May God richly bless you as you instill a love for learning in a beautiful little girl!

  25. I had the same issues as a child growing up with my bday aug 7 I was VERY young when I started and it hurt me all the way through school. No support at home which didn't help either. Thank you for sharing your story.. It's very inspiring to read it. many blessings <><

  26. Woo hoo! You go girl, congrats on being a featured friend! What a great post and I know you will do well with HSing :)

  27. What a beautiful little girl with a beautiful name! I really enjoyed reading about your feelings. I have been doing this for a while and I still feel inadequate sometimes ;0) My guess would be that your Mom will come around to approval after just a little while of Grace being able to "be herself" and learn at her own pace. Anyway, I said a prayer that she would ;)

    God Bless, MeritK

  28. the first year is the scariest, I agree. You have a beautiful daughter. The comments will stop after a while. People just need to get used to the idea and see that it is working for her. I know that there will be hard times, but remember why you are doing this.

    I was just like you in school. My bday was July 31.

  29. Hi!
    I loved reading your post. This assignment was a great way to get to know one another!!! :)
    Have a blessed week!

  30. It is amazing what they expect a child to learn in Kindergarten... children love to learn in a gentle setting. It's almost like the parents and teachers are in some sort of competition.

    You made a great choice for your daughter and she will love it. Blessings on your homeschooling journey.

  31. I lvoed your post. It really hit some key points. I need to remember to enjoy the moments when they get it and not worry when we are working to the point. I also would have loved to have been homeschool. I just told my mom that the other day.

    Jenni a blogger friend school classmate

  32. Sounds to me like you are doing a great job. I have the same thoughts about the schools pushing these kids too hard. Funny thing is that they push them to grow up so fast & then when the get to teen years they complain that they aren't mature enough! Maybe because they didn't have a chance to be kids when they were little! They contradict themselves. Great post. Many blessings~

  33. WOW...what a great post! We have all had those same feelings at one time or another in our hs'ing journey. We just have to take one day at at time, and never lose faith that God will carry us through!

  34. I hear you. I think all those doubts are things all of us feel. We all question at sometime if we are doing the right thing. I think it has a lot to do with what is the norm and we arent doing that.

    My hubby was the same way. I suggest trying to get him involved next year and getting him to a local homeschool convention. The conferences and all the choices are sure to get him excited. Try to involve him . Thats what worked for me.

  35. I'm right there with you! I have those same feelings about am I doing a good job and is she going to learn all she needs to, etc.

    Thank you for sharing!

  36. What a great post! I enjoyed reading it!

  37. I relate to what you said about others around you not understanding and not supporting you. I have appreciated Homeschool Blogger and other online places so I can connect with moms who DO understand and ARE supportive.
    Keep up the good work!

  38. I really enjoyed reading your story. We also have a K-er and a new addition (6 months old). And -- I share some of your same feelings on the PS system these days. It's amazing how they push children. Thanks for sharing your story.

  39. Lovely blog! It looks like you are off to a great start in homeschooling your daughter! K really isn't what it used to be. Learning at home is better than any kindergarten though!

  40. We have a 'Grace' as well. Our homeschooling journey has some similarities to yours. When I was a teenager, there was a lady in our church who, at the time 'only' had 7 children. She homeschooled them and I saw in that family what I wanted in my future family. You can read about them at www.davekarpenkofamily.com What a blessing!

  41. Lots of great points here! I enjoyed reading about your homeschool journey so far.

Thank you for leaving a comment. I love hearing from everyone! :)

May 2014 in pictures

I can't believe it's June!  How on earth did that happen?  It seems like last week that I was at Blogtacular, but no, after checking the calendar several times it turns out that it really is June.

I've got a fun month ahead...the South West Blog Social is on Saturday and I'm meeting up with Louisa and Michelle which will be awesome.  I'm also painting pottery with the WI and thinking about entering a cake into the local show.  Always wanted to do that...

Here's to a fabulous (and sunny) June!!

twitter | pinterest | instagram | bloglovin' | facebook

  1. What is that cake?!? The icing looks AMAZING!

  2. That was the pink lemonade cake from Domestic Sluttery. I put some double cream into the cream cheese icing as it always turns out runny otherwise, and whipped it all together until it came back to soft peaks :)

  3. duck in a dress4 June 2014 at 12:59

    You're so right! The SW Blog Social really will be awesome because it will have some of the most awesome (ie. you, Michelle, Chelsea) bloggy ladies there! See you Saturday! :-) x

Sports Betting Champ – A System For Compound Returns and Growth

When most people hear of the Sports Betting Champ System and learn of its somewhat unbelievable claims they are skeptical, to say the least. I understand that position full-well because it was the spot that I also found myself in along the way before I began placing my own winning bets. I have come to understand the ‘beauty of the numbers’ which make up this powerful system.

Beginning with compound interest, you need to understand the mathematics that make up this system and why the formulas are so interesting. When starting out, it almost doesn’t matter the size of the bets that you place because it all comes down to reinvesting your winnings if you are to be truly successful at growing a large pot of money. To be able to reinvest all of your winnings into placing a bet the next size higher, you are going to need discipline, and lots of it. Furthermore, you are going to need to exercise patience as well so that you do not get anxious and take your winnings, while they are growing, and run off and buy a new sports car.

Discipline and patience are the cornerstones to a successful betting career. These skills must be developed if you are to achieve the kind of money that you are most likely looking for. If you are able to develop this patience and you are able to demonstrate discipline with your ‘investing’ (also known as your betting) then you will find your winnings will grow with each successful trade, and the best systems out there boast as high as a 97% win ratio. This is exactly the win ratio that the Sports Betting Champ system developed by John Harrison has been able to achieve. It is not an exaggeration-it is a discipline.

The key to growing an investment (initial seed capital) with a system like the Sports Betting Champ system is to know how to reinvest all winnings into the next trade (in order to place a systematically higher bet each time). If this can be done, because of disciplines exercised, then the amount you have started with will continue to grow over time and the winnings can compound on top of each other to represent significant growth to your account.

Furthermore, when you have invested in a program like the Sports Betting Champ system, there are follow up goals that can exist for you as well, which may come in the form of new cars and new homes. But these are the ancillary benefits and must be delayed until you are able to grow up your capital significantly. If you begin withdrawing from your online booker account too early then you will never reach your full potential. This could be a world of disappointment to you; this is why the discipline is so important and the reinvestment of winnings is so critical. If, however, you will stick to these guidelines mentioned, then using a system like Sports Betting Champ will help you achieve to the highest levels.

Where to Buy Generic Latisse?

dfbfhdGeneric Latisse is the only FDA-approved treatment proven to make eyelashes grow. It can extend the anagen growth phase, and it is actually effective. The treatment’s key ingredient, bimatoprost, started out in glaucoma medicine to reduce pressure against the eye, Ko explains. Patients noticed that one of the side effects from using bimatoprost was longer, thicker eyelashes. And that’s how the cosmetic benefits were discovered. But since the treatment contains a regulated drug, the only way you can get your hands on it is with a doctor’s prescription. Though effective, it comes with some caveats. You need to faithfully apply it every night before bed, and be sure to do so right at the lash line. “Hair is dead, and applying things to the shaft’s ends won’t have any effect on growth (beyond preventing breakage),” explains Ko. It can take months to notice any results. And be forewarned: One of the side effects of bimatoprost is discoloration on the eyelids and the iris.

If your eyelashes are sparse and breaking off, there’s hope. You can make them grow in strong and long with eyelash growth serum.

Why eyelashes thin out and break

Eyelashes are hair, and just like hair can fall out because of stress, so can eyelashes. Some of the reasons why you might be experiencing eyelashes breaking off or growing in sparsely are:

  • Not removing makeup at the end of the day, or not removing it gently enough
  • Stress, poor diet, endocrine disorders, or other health problems
  • Some medications like birth control
  • Mascara that dries out or damages lashes
  • Too much eye-rubbing or over-using eyelash curlers

Once you’ve noticed that your lashes are looking thin and small, you can immediately make changes to reverse that. If possible, stop using mascara for a while. If you wear it anyways, remove it as gently as possible with a product made for that purpose. And before you apply mascara, use an eyelash primer to strengthen your lashes.

What can heal eyelash thinning and breakage?

When you want to heal your eyelashes and make them strong and long, you have several kinds of products you can try. One of the most popular natural options is castor oil. Many people apply a thin coat of castor oil to their lashes and eyebrows at night. It takes time to see results, but it’s an all-natural solution with practically no side effects (unless you’re allergic). Those who can’t use castor oil also try olive oil or even petroleum jelly.

Beauty trend forecasters say 2018 will be the year of dramatic eyelashes—so don’t be surprised if mascaras get a lot more high tech and faux extensions become the norm in your social group. But when it comes to the most au natural option—formulas that boost the growth of the lashes you were born with—the natural and organic industry hasn’t really been ahead of the curve.

Careprost can consequently do two positive things in one’s eyes. While it enables the eyelash growth in weeks of usage,it also treats glaucoma. With glaucoma, hypertension causes the glaucoma, and the clog of eye fluid on the eye chambers causes the hypertension. Careprost comes to rescue by altering the flow of the eye fluid, flushing out the clog particles on the eye chambers to reduce hypertension and then eventually treats glaucoma. Careprost is applied through dropping the solution inside the eyes when treating glaucoma, while as eyelash grower, Careprost is patted directly into the eyelids. Careprost for eyelash growth works as a stimulus, it motivates the hair follicles in the lashes to grow new lashes and extend the normal growth of the lashes to its maximum length.

If your healthcare provider has prescribed you Careprost opthalmic solution, then he or she is quite certain that you have either glaucoma (open-angle glaucoma) or ocular hypertension (raised IOP). Glaucoma is an eye condition that can not be cured completely. But, clinical studies financed by National Eye Institute have established that you can significantly cut down the risk for visual field loss by reducing elevated IOP level.Before using Careprost (Bimatoprost) therapy, you must be aware of certain important safety information about the medication. This 0.03% opthalmic solution is believed to cause blackening or pigmentation of eye color, eyelid skin, and eyelashes. Many patients have also reported the impact of the drug on increasing the growth of eyelashes. The alteration of pigmentation can continue to increase as long as Careprost is applied. Once you discontinue the eye drop, the pigmentation of eyelid skin and eyelashes may return to their previous state. But, the darkening of the eye color is more or less permanent. There is no information on the outcomes of amplified blackening beyond a period of 5 years.

When you treat only one eye with Careprost (Bimatoprost) eye drop, there is every possibility of eyelash alterations in the treated eye. You may also experience marked differences between two eyes in terms of length of eyelash, darkness, thickness, amount of eyelashes, and/or direction of eyelash outgrowth. However, there is nothing to worry about as all these changes are normally reversible as soon as you stop using Careprost therapy.

Duskers In Real Life for Halloween

Misfits Attic have two treats in store for Halloween.. the first of which is that they are doing Duskers “in real life” for Halloweeen, by streaming live robots controlled by Twitch, exploring a constructed derelict ship!

Steam Halloween Sale Now On

From now until November 1st, the Steam Halloween Sale is giving horror fans a discount on anything frightening, creepy or ghoulish through the Steam Store!

Steam Halloween Sale 2013

Early Halloween Treats for Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

Team NINJA has begun the Halloween celebration with the release of a free stage named “Haunted Lorelei” for Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate and the free-to-play Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate: Core Fighter!

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate - Haunted Lorelei

Halloween Releases

Steam’s Halloween Sale has plenty of discounted games.. spooky, creepy, scary and eerie.. perfect for Halloween!

Painkiller: Hell & Damnation was released for the PC last night, including exclusive Halloween DLC consisting of a unique Halloween map, themed enemies, decorations, rewards and even an exclusive achievement.

Free This Weekend

Plants vs Zombies is currently available for free as part of the Stop Zombie Mouth campaign, with redeemable coupons being given out in association with the American Dental Association: instead of giving sweets to trick or treating children, give them coupons for a game!

Monoculus and More TF2 Goodness!

When we’ve managed to down Monoculus over the past few days, I wasn’t ever close enough to get in the portal to Loot Island.  That changed tonight tho, as I was invited along to a friend’s server to try for the achievement and to receive presents..

Loot Island.. the bit with the skull..

Within the Skull.. the Bombinomicon!  Running through the book gave me the achievement “Dive Into a Good Book”, and when I next died, I received the “Bombinomicon”.. an item which causes player deaths to be as over the top as possible!  I can see the novelty wearing off after a while, but for now it’s all about the silly 🙂

After collecting this, we hung around to play.. normal playing between Monoculus’ appearances, then attacking only him once he’d arrived.  The group on the server were fun to play with, and there was even an agreement in place that they’d take it in turns to grab the random Halloween gift box until everyone had received one 🙂

With the teamwork, we took the boss down a number of times, allowing enough trips onto Loot Island to experience the bombing to oblivion that happens if you try to stay on the map, and to get a look at the back of the Bombinomicon, where you can see a price tag.. $6.66.. and note some reviews on the back!

Apparently the previous two Halloween events are still accessible.. may have to look into this 🙂

Halloween Goodness!

Halloween.. time to celebrate zombies and undead things.. and time to check out the awesome extras added to certain games! 🙂

A friend pointed me towards TF2, and the Halloween map, the Eyeaduct!
This is a modified version of Viaduct, with pumpkins, candy, and ghosts roaming the map.. get too close, and you end up “Scared Stiff”!

There were freebies too: I was given a Seal Mask and Dr Gogglestache.. there were some new achievements to grab.. and there was also a boss to fight!

Monoculus spawns randomly in the map once there are enough human players, and sets about firing eyeball rockets at the players, who have a minute and a half to kill him before he leaves for another realm.  He seems to have a lot of health, and he hits hard.. I only saw him killed a few times during the hours we played, versus the hundreds of times he killed me.

While alive, Monoculus moves around the map leaving behind a purple vortex which grants access to the Underworld.. a special map where you take constant damage until you escape via the second portal.  Players escaping the Underworld get invulnerability and a brief crit boost.. and Monoculus gets stunned in the process, thereby helping to bring him down.

Unfortunately, I haven’t yet grabbed the Bombinomicon..
When Monoculus is defeated he drops an open Bombinomicon, granting access to Loot Island for those fast enough, and a copy of the Bombinomicon.

Last night, I had a decent run with the Demoman.. finding Stickybombs a lot of fun 😉
Tonight’s game included a bit of Heavy and Medic power, which was working out rather well between Monoculus’ appearances.. but again, I think I should play more TF2 🙂

Dungeon Defenders was the second game with Halloween additions, in the form of free DLC.. a Halloween-themed map for high level players, and some unlockable outfits.  The Tavern was also decorated for the occasion 🙂

The Halloween map is available to all, but as I found, it’s far too difficult for low level players.. there are three Eternia Crystals to guard, and the enemies are very strong.  I lasted a whole 48 seconds! 🙂

Meet Megan

As a baby photographer,  I have the wonderful privilege of meeting absolutely amazing families every day and being a part of their once-in-a-lifetime memories.

I think my favorite part of the experience is watching a new mom cry as she sees her baby’s portraits for the first time. Those happy tears show that every sleepless night and dirty diaper is worth it, all to be able to finally hold your baby in your arms.

And I love that.

scroll down to take a peek

My husband, Micah, known to our friends as Mr. Camera Happy, was actually the one who introduced me to my first camera at sixteen years old. Over a decade later, we have a cozy home in the picture-perfect town of Palmer, Alaska, three kids, a dog, our dream careers, and all we’re missing is the picket fence.

Our children, a rough-and-tumble boy named Caleb, a sweet ray of sunshine named Samantha, and a dimpled toddler named Clara, are our joys (in fact, Caleb was the very first newborn I ever photographed!) and we are constantly inspired by each new milestone and discovery.

I know first-hand how wonderfully precious these fleeting moments are, and especially how fast the time flies by. It seems like just yesterday we were holding our son in our arms for the very first time, and now he is in fourth-grade. When it comes down to it, photography is all about enjoying the love of family and somehow cherishing those moments for just a little while longer.

I welcome families from all over Alaska and the Lower 48. I would love to be a part of your family's special memories or just make a new friend!

banner historia

The Company  Microprocessador – Sistemas Digitais, S.A., was established in 1979 by a group of lectures of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, whose vision was the innovation in the area of the electronic and digital systems.

The first products were developed from orders placed by Electricity of Portugal and the textile industry. Later, the development of two products dedicated to the industrial area aroused the interest of the Group Sonae.

In 1984, the Group Sonae acquires the majority of the capital of Microprocessador, becoming the Microprocessador part of the Sonae´s group in the area of Information Technologies. After the association, the Microprocessador grows and gains experience, keeping up with the growth of the business group in markets such as industry and services (distribution, shopping centres, real estate).

In 1991, the group Sonae decides to transfer the companies that composed this business area, focusing on its main business areas. The control of the Microprocessador returns to its main frame, maintaining their pledge. The company´s activity doesn´t top growing, maintaining a strong business relationship with several of Sonae´s companies that, even today, makes of the Sonae group one of the leading references.

In 1993, looking for technology partner, and with an industrial weight, the Group Efacec joins the capital of the Microprocessador, holding 54.25% of the company´s capital. The Microprocessor receives a new boost and expands its business into new markets, particularly in the transport market. Once again, exists a clear pledge in investing in the development of its own technology.

The Microprocessor matures as a company, acquires experience in major projects and extends its references. During this period, establishes its branch in the South and begins its international activity.

In 2006, taking advantage of a process of restructuring in the Group Efacec, the Microprocessador once again gains autonomy and leaves this Group. New shareholders, with presence and reference in the markets where the Microprocessador performs, enters the capital of the Microprocessador. The strategy and organization are reviewed and a new impulse is generated.

A Message from a Button?

When I was growing up (and then some), I was always on the look-out for omens.  Seeing a particular kind of bird, being struck with the way autumn light looked on a wall, finding money on the sidewalk – you name it, I thought it might mean more than it seemed.

I thought I’d completely outgrown this.  However, I was recently mending a pair of hiking pants, sewing back on an errant button.  Then I saw the message: “Face The North.”  Oh my goodness, I thought of realigning with my true self, finding the pole star of my life, regaining true purpose and strength. There was great truth being communicated to yours truly by a simple button.

Then I noticed the label on the pants: The North Face.  Dang! It wasn’t a message at all; just me reading a noun as a verb.

But it was great while it lasted!

Best Thing to do in Group Meetings? Listen!

The following is taken from “The Wisdom of Group Deicision by Craig Freshly via the Co-Housing Newsletter (and no I don’t live in a co-housing community, I’ve just gotten the newsletter since forever). What do to when someone else in the meeting is talking:

“Bite your tongue. Cool your jets. To listen, do not talk. Do not be distracted by planning your talk. If I let you talk first while I listen, it gives me some practical advantages. First, to hear where you are coming from helps me choose my words. You have likely provided me some new information that I can incorporate. Second, once you have your words out you are more likely to be open to hearing mine.”

I think this applies in any group situation – business, church, community or arts organization.  Just listen. And I think the group can be as small as two.  This quote came by chance as I’m getting ready for a group meeting.  I think I’ll stick a copy in my notebook – after I tape my mouth shut!

Five Years From Now – Thinking about your future

One of the most dreaded interview questions has to be “Where do you see yourself five years from now?”  I always wanted to crawl under the chair when they asked that.  What’s the right answer?  “Anywhere but here?”  Probably too snarky.  “A leading contributor to my field and a valued asset to this organization?”  Sounds like a textbook answer.  And so on.

At the same time, it’s probably a question worth asking yourself – especially if that first response is the one that springs to mind.

If you’re a musician in a church job, are you where you want to be in five years?  If you want to stay, how do you want your music and your choir to sound?  If you want to move, where would you go?  Or would you rather do something else?  Or add another string to your musical bow – arranging, composing, solo performing?

I’m not saying what anyone should do.  I’m just suggesting the question.

Requiem pour une américane à Paris for Organ and Trumpet

Richard J. Clark

Previewing a remarkable composition for organ and trumpet by Boston-based composer Richard J. Clark.  Seven movements based on the Gregorian chant propers for the requiem mass, performed by the composer on the organ and Richard A. Kelley, trumpet.  Learn more about the composer at http://www.rjcceciliamusic.com/

I’m not a big fan of modern organ compositions, many of which sound like something is dreadfully wrong with the instrument or that the performer is having a medical emergency.  This is different – just the right combination of tonality and dissonance.  The mix of organ and trumpet is well balanced.  In short, Clark nails it.

Thoughtful, enjoyable, and most excellently performed.  Definitely going into the rotation for The Classical Fan Club (every Thursday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on WFCF Flagler College Radio, an iHeart radio station).

Palm Sunday At Last!

The journey through Lent has finally brought us to Palm Sunday.  The 11 o’clock Mass at the Cathedral-Basilica of St. Augustine started outside with our bishop, Felipe Estevez and the Cathedral clergy, Knights of Columbus, St. Augustine’s Royal Family, and a huge church-full of worshippers.  The Passion was read well and the Cathedral choir did their best.  Of course, the mighty Casavant organ was in top form.  And wait, I almost forgot the Blessing of the Fleet that followed.  Everything from tiny pleasure craft to shrimp boats to our own Black Raven faux pirate ship!

Coming up for me is Holy Week in Spain – Madrid, to be precise.  Looking forward to processions, liturgies, and music.  Also great museums, food, and a side trip (I hope) to Avila.

Rocking Out with Organ Voluntaries

small english organ There are absolutely no pieces that are more entertaining to play than 18th century English organ voluntaries.  And I treated myself to two volumes of these.  Great slow full diapason introductions, followed by fugues or trumpet tunes with winsome echos.  Most of them are  by lesser composers who were leading organists in their day.  Boatloads of fun for the fingers.  And many are quite useful for entrances and for that time with the wedding guests straggle out of the church.

Rethinking Recto Tono Chant

I’m responsible for a weekly vespers service at the Shrine of La Leche in St. Augustine.  This service is offered on the basis that all who come can sing (in contrast to the monthly vespers with Cantorae St. Augustine).  Consequently, while we have a few regulars, many of the people who come are drop-ins who’ve seen a sign at the Mission Nombre de Dios or in the Shrine chapel itself.

We’ve tried various experiments with chant in the last 18 months or so.  And I won’t bother recounting the disasters.  I did shift to a fixed text from Benedictine Daily Prayer a few months ago, the premise being that familiarity with the words would help the regular attendees and make them a stronger support for the visitors.  I used three basic psalm tones for the three psalms we used.  Everything was fine if, and only if, I were there.  However, I travel.

When I was in Mexico City, I happened to be in the Metropolitan Cathedral when the canons and choirboys were chanting Lauds in Spanish.  Amazing – it was RECTO TONO!  This means “straight tone” and is best understood as one note.  Yup – just one note.  And it sounded wonderful.

Changing the Wednesday materials for Lent gave me the opportunity to try this out with my own singers.  And it was a smashing success.  It was easy for people to stay together.  The two-choir split worked fine.  Everyone was happy at the end (including me) – and when I’m out of town they will know just what to do.

We did leave the hymn to the tune of Jesu dulcis memoria and the Marian antiphon remained the simple tone Salve Regina (I only change for the Regina caeli in Eastertide because I’m not interested in performing solos on the others.)

So you can sniff and turn up your nose at recto tono all you want, but if you want a random group of untrained singers to have a positive experience of psalmody, it’s a good way to go.

Cantorae at the Shrine in Spring 2014

Tomorrow evening at 6 p.m., Cantorae St. Augustine will launch its spring series of Choral Vespers at the Shrine of La Leche.  We hope that all who can will join us for this first evening, as well as taking note of the dates for the months ahead.  Always on a Friday and always starting at 6 p.m., here’s the rest of the schedule:

  • February 14th (Why not bring your Valentine?)
  • March 21st
  • April 25th
  • May 23rd
  • June 13th

Again, all are invited for these vespers that combine Latin and English to provide a time for prayer and reflection in the oldest Marian shrine in what later became the United States of America.
