Friday Freewrite: Summer Fun!

Friday Freewrite: Make a list of all the things you can do during the summer each day. Pin it to the refrigerator and then read it when you get bored. Have your mom or dad help you purchase supplies so they will be on hand.

The Power of Love Movie

I watched this little video montage this morning. I don’t know the organization that put it together so I’m not vouching for it. However, the contents of this short film sequence about love so touched me, I felt I needed to share it with you all.

The working title of a book I’m writing is called Brave Love. It’s love that drove us to home educate—love of children, love of family, love of learning—a belief that we could love our kids better than anyone else.

Let yourself feel loved today—the richness that comes from giving and returns to you when you pause to receive it.

From the website:

Love is one of the most powerful experiences that can be enjoyed by anyone – young or old, big or small, rich or poor. It’s what can bring us the greatest fulfillment, sense of success, joy, and pure happiness. We invite you now to celebrate the love in your life with this inspirational movie aptly named "The Power of Love." Turn up your volume, sit back, relax, and enjoy.

A little of this and that…

Hi everyone!

Great to have you all reading along. I removed the two posts that were here earlier this week (about the GHC and the Cincinnati convention in particular). The week is over, we’ve all had a chance to discuss what happened or may have happened, and I was able to answer some direct questions about my life and Brave Writer’s story. If you missed those posts and would like to read them, you may email me. Otherwise, let’s let the past be past and move forward into a happy future. I’ve loved all the incredible emails you’ve sent me. Some have brought me to tears.

This whole chain of events has led to many more opportunities to share about Brave Writer’s work too. Just yesterday I was in touch with the Homeschool Expo in BC (Canada, that is!). They called and I listened. I hope I can be a part of that great Northwest convention at some time in the future. I’ve had requests for articles, speaking, and general goodwill all around, so thank you for all of that.

The best way to help Brave Writer is to share about it with your homeschooling friends. I know you already do… so keep doing that. 🙂

More homeschool advice and writing help coming your way!

In the meantime, next week is a big one for us.

The new Jot It Down! Year Long Language Arts and Writing Program is set to release.

So excited about THAT!

If you want to get in on the first week discount, be sure you are receiving our Brave Writer Zipline—our email newsletter. You can sign up on the home page: Sign up for the Zipline.

Have a great weekend!

–Julie
