And I can’t even imagine doing it all again next year. So I say to my husband: “I just don’t want to do it anymore. ...
What Do You Have in Your Hand?
Posted by Lisa N. | 0 comments
I want to share with you a question that was paradigm changing for me. It is this: “What do you have in your hand?” What do you have, right now, that you can give, use, steward.

Dealing with “Stuff”

I’m overwhelmed with stuff. Tubs full of craft supplies. Art supplies. Games. Learning toys. Boxes of books. Children’s books. Homeschooling books. Educational resources for years to come.
