How to Finish School in the Morning

Dear Holly,
I've read your book and love it. I have 5 boys (grades 6, 5, 2nd, and a 5 and 3 yr old) and wonder how do you get your school done by 1230 p.m.? We always have to go to 2 or 3 p.m. What curriculum do you use? Especially for math and English/writing? Haven't yet set up my mother's rule schedule, because I'm afraid I'll fail. It seems I'm only doing school, laundry and whatever I can fit in...before it's time to cook dinner.

One Reason Why A Rule Can be Hard to Follow...

Dear Holly,
I had a light bulb moment today, they don't happen often...:) I was standing in my kitchen and it came to me that I need to write down and work on what the spirit of my rule is. Now, I have to say that when I read the book Holly, I thought that yours sounded great and I thought ok, I'll do that when I get myself, kids, husband, home, etc in order. Well, that was two years ago and really will I ever be "in order". I think really I need to work on the spirit of my rule to help with the order, I keep falling away from my rule because I haven't had a written spirit so to speak. Something about having it written down makes it more real for me, more tangible. The starting point isn't just getting organized. So, I embark on an adventure, I think it will be part of my lenten
"project".
