Charlotte Mason Quote

“What is worth beginning is worth finishing, and what is worth doing is worth doing well.” (Charlotte Mason, "Home Education" Vol. 4, pt. II, p. 172)

School has begun!

What a wonderful start. The children really love to learn. Praying that they continue this passion for the rest of their lives. May their knowledge, and reason lead them to heaven.

”Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don't only give your care, but give your heart as well." – Bl. Mother Teresa


Thank you, dear Mother. I pray to remember this everyday, as we go about our lessons. May my example teach them how to love Christ, and be loving and compassionate toward others. We hope to obtain heaven by your example. Your words always give me a renewed desire for God, hope in the Lord, and motivation to bring Christ to others with humility.

Bl. Mother Teresa, pray for us!

Blessed Mother Teresa, pray for us!

Mother Teresa has been an influential person in my reversion. She is my special patroness in matters pertaining to my vocation. Her spirituality is one I desire to imitate, and hope to instill in my children. Therefore, we have named our homeschool after Mother Teresa.

This blog is an offshoot of my existing Living the Mother's Rule blog.

We needed a separate space to journal our homeschool adventures.

"Let us begin".
