Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I don't blog............yet. I have thought about it, but have yet to take the leap. My question is....to those of you who do blog,,,do you find that blogging helps you to be more accountable for your homeschooling day? I have enjoyed reading about everyone's schedules and it has certainly inspired me with my own. I keep track of what I do in a binder, but, I am very curious about keeping track of it in some type of blog.
Thanks........

Marcie, I have been blogging for a year now, and once you get into a groove you learn how to be really efficient with blogging and reading them, although there will always be WAY more blogs to read than any person can actually get to

Have fun if you decide to go for it, I know for me as well, it's my only form of accountability, and it's much more enjoyable than a notebook for me

Blessings!

Marcie, I find that it is helping me to be more creative in my lesson plans. Then maybe someday I'll actually blog about them on my blog!

I write a blog post early in the morning outlining what we plan to do that day. (Written as if it's already done!) Then at the end of the day I go to the draft and see what I actually accomplished and make any changes before I post it. It definitely helps me accomplish what I set out to do!
