ABCs by Jessie Wilcox Smith

All set for back to school?  Homeschooling always looks just like this, right? :)

Do not be in a hurry.

Some advice from the boss.

A Psalm for Friday

Canticle of Moses

Let us sing unto the Lord:
for He is gloriously magnified...
The Lord is my strength and my praise:
and He is become salvation unto me.
He is my God, and I will glorify Him.

Exodus, 15

The Queen Mother: Part I

If you haven’t seen the wonderful Colin Firth movie The King’s Speech, you really should.  It’s got some fantastic actors; it’s moving, heartwarming, educational, and wonderfully funny at times.  (Caveat: There’s a bit of swearing, one scene is loaded with it, but it’s for speech therapy reasons.) It also has perhaps the most normal character Helena Bonham Carter has ever played – Queen Elizabeth.  Not Queen Elizabeth I or Queen Elizabeth II, but Queen Elizabeth, known as the Queen consort of King George VI, and after his death, the Queen Mother.  She was an incredible lady.  Hers was a life of generous, loving service, devoted to her husband, her children, and her country.
