Motto: our new mottos for 2010

This will be our motto for 2010 ... the kids will be using this motto for copywork and memory work.  They'll be learning this quote from Philippians that sums up both our reason for prayers and all about which we should be thinking and learning.  The "sign" in the graphic above is a Christmas decoration which we will keep hanging in our dining room all year ... to remind us of the joy and love of the Christmas season throughout the darkness of Lent and the Passion! 

This is my personal motto for 2010 ... from St. Therese's "little way" as described in Story of a Soul.  I know that if all I choose is what God wills, than all will be well and I will be at peace ... even in the midst of controversy and turmoil!

Blessings to you all and prayers for a holy, healthy and happy 2010 .... from all of us here at Hillside Farm!
