Though we officially are taking a summer break from homeschooling, we still have story, and devotional times. Right now our daily stories are taken from (Dusty's Beary Tales) Building Character with Bible Virtues. It was written by "Aunt Ruthie" over at Sugar Pie Farmhouse. We're only on the third story, but so far it's been awesome. My daughter really likes it. She gets her little study bible and marks the verses. We only mark in light pencil, but I feel it's important for her to mark what she likes to read and make notes.
Since summer is in full swing, and fourth of July celebrations are around the corner I've decided to add a little "americana" to our routine. We'll be learning, or relearning some old and new songs about America. Our beloved nation. What's the first one on the list? God Bless America, by Irving Berlin. I feel that it's very important to teach our children to love this country that God has blessed us with.
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Through the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home!
