Thanks for the article.
I recently purchased the book at a homeschooling conference, but I have not used it as of yet. I read the first few chapters...then kind of lost track. I had a baby girl, who is now two months, so I have been busy and somewhat procrastinating about i because it looked overwhelming to me! There was so much information, I thought, I can't do this!
I need to get into it again. I suppose if you felt the same and made it work, I probably can also.

Great article. I have been wanting that book for a long time. I love this "I could do all that the Lord desired me to do but I could not necessarily do everything that I desired to do!"

I have recently made scheduling changes again. Seems that we tweak and tweak. With children, different activities and day to day distractions, it gets harder to keep but as you stated, I must make this a habit. Thank you so much for the encouragement, Kristine. You are such a blessing.

Kristine, I definitely needed a little push to put together a routine. Ever since my third child was born, things have been so loosey-goosey that I'm going nuts!!! It works for some people, but not for me.. because without routine, I end up sitting down on the couch OVERWHELMED with all the to-dos!
