To say I wait for the flowering of the dogwood wou To say I wait for the flowering of the dogwood would be an understatement. The American dogwood is native to Tennessee. When I first moved here, I was fascinated by the appearance of the tiny buds (shaped like lotus buds) that winter. I’d never seen anything like it, so captured it in my nature journal to await identification. The blossoms only last for about two weeks—to me it’s the Southeast equivalent to seeing the cherry blossoms in DC. @rbaburina . . . . . . . . . #dogwood #americandogwood #naturejournal #naturenotebook #perpetualjournal
On a fateful January day in the early 1970s, two g On a fateful January day in the early 1970s, two girls visited a school. Their names were Margaret and Kirsteen. The mother described what happened when the girls got home: “After the first day, Kirsteen came home glowing with life and interest. ‘We had the most exciting story today, but Mrs. Norton stopped at just the wrong place. I can’t wait to hear the next part of the story!’ And what was this exciting, vitalizing story? To my astonishment, it was Pilgrim’s Progress, read to them in the original.” Kirsteen’s mother was intrigued and spoke with the headmistress, whose name was Olive Norton. Years later she would write, “Thank you, Olive Norton, for introducing us to Charlotte Mason in the first place.” Kirsteen’s family was deeply involved in L’Abri and wanted to introduce Charlotte Mason to the wider community. What better way than to invite Mrs. Norton to speak? And so she did. And the lecture was recorded. The name of Kirsteen’s mother is Susan Schaeffer Macaulay. Macaulay went on to write “For the Children’s Sake,” the book that introduced countless parents and teachers around the world to Charlotte Mason. The cassette recording of Mrs. Norton’s lecture has survived for half of a century. However, the quality of that recording has deteriorated so much over those years that it now takes effort and concentration to make out what exactly she is saying. So, two years ago we began a project to transcribe the recording. A team of volunteers painstakingly studied every syllable on the cassette to piece together the original lecture. Today we present the complete transcript. The text was originally delivered as a lecture, however, and we wanted you to be able to hear it as well. So our talented reader Jennifer Talsma has produced a tour de force recording that captures the spontaneity of a live speech while maintaining word-for-word fidelity to the original text. “I know that may sound to you just an ideal,” said Olive Norton, “but I can honestly tell you it is an actual fact.” Read or hear the lecture that started a movement, brought to life in a new way today.

“It may take time and patience, but one of the mos “It may take time and patience, but one of the most rewarding jobs in a busy mother’s life is to find for her children the books which will give them real pleasure.” (Jane Carruth, PR69, “What Are Your Children Reading?”) @tessakeath
In Luke 1:39-55 we find the sacred account of the In Luke 1:39-55 we find the sacred account of the Visitation. Mary found herself in miraculous circumstances the world could never understand. Where could she go? She sought another woman who had also experienced the supernatural power of God. In one of my favorite poems by Charlotte Mason, the emotions of Mary are sketched with a reverent and sober hand. What follows is the Magnificat, a rare occurrence of poetry in the Greek New Testament, transformed here into English poetry with meter and rhyme. In words like music, “His secret—now, He maketh known.” Link in profile. @artmiddlekauff . . . . . . . . . #magnificat #thesaviouroftheworld #gospelofluke #dummelow #thevisitation
