We just finished our chapters on the Civil War. To make sure we "got the idea" :) we had our own civil war with marshmallow guns! We had the boys against girls (family against family) and I dumped a HUGE pile of marshmallows in the middle of the yard (ensuring that everyone would have to be a "target" at some point) :) And we went at it... I have my own gun and did not choose sides, so I could shoot everyone!!! It lasted at least a half hour and the yard was COVERED with marshmallows! It was great!
Jacob figured out how to go up the ladder and down the slide while we had our war! What a fun day! :)
We are a CRAZY but having fun being that way family. We have 6 kids. They are Sarah-12, Joseph-10, Hannah-8, Caleb-6, Jacob-3, and Lydia -14 months. We love animals and the outdoors, and homeschooling!
*People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. *If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. *If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. *If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway. *What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. *If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. *The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. *Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. *In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
