Q: How does a homeschooler change a light bulb?
A: First, mom checks three books on electricity out of the library, then the kids make models of
light bulbs, read a biography of Thomas Edison and do a skit based on his life. Next, everyone studies the history of lighting methods, wrapping up with dipping their own candles. Next, everyone takes a trip to the store where they compare types of light bulbs as well as prices and figure out how much change they'll get if they buy two bulbs for $1.99 and pay with a five dollar bill. On the way home, a discussion develops over the history of money and also Abraham Lincoln, as his picture is on the five dollar bill. Finally, after building a homemade ladder out of branches dragged from the woods, the light bulb is installed. And there is light. ~Author Unknown

How true!!hehehe
I am so glad that you are doing so well after all that you've been through. You are still in my thoughts and prayers. I read your post below about having family visiting. I am glad that you at least had some fun with them during their visit.
Thanks for your question about the cookbook. I left an answer on my blog in case anyone else wondered. Basically the cookbook is pretty easy to follow. It has some basic cooking instructions then a lot of good recipes.
~Have a blessed day.
hee hee hee oh and you forgot the part about discussing when God created light! That would make the discussion complete!
That is hilarious!
That is so true!!! And, it actually sounds like a great study. :-)
