Evan said...: That last one is a hard lesson to learn! Prayer can easily become nothing more than handing God a wish list, when in fact it should be a way of drawing closer to Him and becoming what we should be.; May 23, 2010 at 12:13 PM

Sweetums5 said...: I agree, Evan! It's so easy to rattle off what we need based on our myopic perspective of life. We sometimes forget that we are actually addressing the God of the Universe who can give us much more than the limited things we ask for, grant us the Grace to grow in His Image and fulfill all our deepest longings, if only we listen, trust and unite our wills to His.

Thanks for your comment!; May 24, 2010 at 4:47 AM
Jessica said...: These are beautiful quotes and pictures.... It gives me something to really think about, especially the last one.
And "Prayer: it's hard to stumble when you're on your knees"- I really like that. Actually, I like all of them. :D
Thanks for sharing!

Evan said...: By the way, I'm curious about your homeschooling methods? What do you mean by "eclectic home learning" and "attachment parenting"?; May 24, 2010 at 11:28 AM
Sweetums5 said...: Thanks for asking, Evan! Will answer you soon ....

God bless!; May 25, 2010 at 7:06 AM
Sweetums5 said...: Hi, Evan -- I finally got to answer your question on Eclectic Home Learning in my last post. I included it in my latest contribution to Sunday Snippets. Sorry it took me so long to answer, but we've been busy finishing end-of-the-schoolyear stuff. Will get back to you on Attachment Parenting. Big questions! But so glad you asked! God bless!; June 7, 2010 at 7:56 AM

My Little Gallery of Favorite Art Masterpieces

I love Art! I have taught both Art and Art History to my kids, other homeschoolers and students in school. I wanted to *decorate* this blog with some of my favorite paintings from the world's greatest artists. Mind you, I don't necessarily agree with the lifestyle choices these artists have made for themselves during their lifetime. I just love the Art they've given to the world and the artistic talents God gave them!

And since I can't collect them in real life (nor would I have the space in my home to display them, much as I would love to do that!), I'm so happy to be able to collect them online with these incredible copyright-free images! What a visual feast for the eyes (at least for me)! I try and share this enjoyment with my kids and students. My little collection here represents a brief survey of Western Art from the Middle Ages to modern times. I find it so rewarding just looking at these masterpieces .... Thank you, Lord, for the gift of Art.

Later on, I will post some of the art projects we've done in my classes and the works my students have created.
