		<description><![CDATA[I feel like I&#8217;m in this in-between-stage of life. The bulk of my parenting/child training is over, my youngest is almost 17, while my other children are 20 and over. I mostly listen now and give advice when it is asked for&#8230;or if I can&#8217;t bite my tongue any longer. ;o) God&#8217;s providence for us [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our greatest resource, and possibly the most abused, is TIME!  One of the lessons that were taught to me early on in my homeschooling days (almost 18 years ago!) was because of our freedom, and not being limited to someone else&#8217;s agenda, that it was easy to get over committed and overwhelmed with curriculum and activities. There are [...]]]></description>
