Have any of you seen the new Jane Austen movie or Have any of you seen the new Jane Austen movie or mini-series? If not, will you? Let me know all about it—your thoughts, who you went with, did you dress up? Just no spoilers, please, for those of us that haven’t gotten to watch them yet (like me). @rbaburina . . . . . . . . . #janeausten #livingbooks #charlottemasoneducation #charlottemasonpoetry #prideandprejudice #janeaustenmovies #janeaustenbirthday
I was just eight years old when our country celebr I was just eight years old when our country celebrated its 200th birthday. That entire school year we learned patriotic hymns, songs, and poetry which culminated in a star-spangled concert. The seats of honor were filled with veterans and behind them sat our entire county—filling the bleachers, the gym floor, and spilling out into the corridor. It was 1976 and our rural community and nation were still reeling from the Vietnam War. We students—all dressed in red, white, and blue—sang our hearts out with the audience joining in. The words, “Oh beautiful for spacious skies” rang out with a tremor that pulsed through us all and when we belted out “She’s a grand old flag” the audio technician had to take off his headset due to the volume! Looking back, I believe the act of asking God to bless America and paying homage to the men and women in front of us, those that had gone before us, and to the emblem of the land we love brought our community great healing as we remembered our country’s core values. Enjoy celebrating the 249th year of our nation’s birth! In the days that follow, as we gear up for its 250th, remember these words of Charlotte Mason: “But before we teach children to criticise the institutions of their country, before we teach them to be critical of what is bad, let us teach them to recognize and admire what is good.” (Vol. 6, p. 126) @rbaburina . . . . . . . . #redwhiteandblue #fourthofjuly2025 #fourthofjuly #independenceday #independenceday2025 #citizenship #proudtobeanamerican
The magic of a Charlotte Brontë novel transports The magic of a Charlotte Brontë novel transports me to another world. Places, people, scenes, and sights all become real. The stories touch me as if they were happening to a loved one or a friend. Nowhere do I feel this more than the in garden scene of Jane Eyre, chapter 23. “Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless?” asks Jane. “You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart!” These words moved me to record them in a commonplace years ago before I even knew what a commonplace was. Reading the book with my son has been a delight… but especially when we reached this chapter. Yet though I had read it before, something new struck me this time. You see, I’ve also been reading Charlotte Brontë’s poems. I’ve been reading her descriptions of sunsets, twilights, stars, and gardens. And yes, even of a chestnut tree. As I read the description of Jane Eyre wandering through the orchard — “no nook in the grounds more sheltered and more Eden-like” — I realized I was reading the fruit of years of a poet’s imagination. Reading Brontë’s poems has given me new eyes for her prose. There in the garden, Jane says, “it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God’s feet, equal — as we are!” There in the schoolroom reading silently with my son, we were equals sitting at God’s feet, partaking of the words of a spirit that did indeed pass through the grave. And it felt a bit like Eden. @artmiddlekauff . . . . . . . . . #livingbooks #janeeyre #charlottebronte #literatureclassics #homeschoolingwiththeclassics #desireforknowledge #knowledgeofGod #beautifulbooks #booksforthesoul #charlottemason #charlottemasonpoetry #charlottemasonirl #livingeducation #charlottemasonliving #abundantlife #charlottebrontepoetry #gardenofeden
We have the most ridiculously cute baby skunks wan We have the most ridiculously cute baby skunks wandering around our neighbourhood. They have been around for over a week. They like to play during the day time (!) near the high child traffic areas in people’s yards, like the trampoline, garden boxes, ditches, and swings. If they find a cat to play with, even better. One child called his mom and said “come look at this cute squirrel” and at least two toddlers have walked towards one, arms outstretched, ready to cuddle the adorable pet! We’d seen one alone, and two together, and a few days ago one of our neighbours spotted four together in her yard. We have no idea how many there are. And we’ve not seen a mom at any of the many many reported sightings. They look so very cute, so very cuddly, and they waddle around in such a sweet and funny way, but... Anyone here have a pet skunk or four? 🦨 🤣 🦨 🤣 🦨 🤣 🦨 @antonella.f.greco
