Things Worth Remembering

The three habits that lead to success are: Patience, Application, and Vision.

Take care: The person who will tell others' faults to you - will tell yours to others.

It is always better to be underestimated.

There are three things that are better than riches: Health, Freedom, and Honor.

Think swiftly, speak softly, act wisely.

"The world is neither Scottish, English, nor Irish, neither French, Dutch, nor Chinese, but human, and each nation is only the partial development of a universal humanity." - James Grant on founding the National Association for the Vindication of Scottish Rights, 1862

You have paid the price for your lack of vision.

And it is called… summer school. 

 

Well, a few lessons this summer anyway in writing and math. (Before you tar and feather me, it was Padawan Learner’s idea.)

May the Force be with us all, Share!

      We tend to school through “holidays”. Then we take time off to suit our schedule. Sure it means we have school for two weeks and vacation for ten…. KIDDING!

      FUN! Lol.
      Someone actually asked me at church yesterday if we were going to homeschool through the summer. I was kind of taken aback – when does one ever put learning “on hold”?? Especially at 5! There’s a constant hunger to touch things, experience things, see things and it’s ALLLLLL learning/school.
      p.s. let me know when your t-shirt arrives!

      Oh, except it wasn’t his idea. It would have never ever been his idea.
