I went over there and read that blog and thought it is was great. I grew up that way not because I was unscheduled but I was also an only child. (If you knew me you would say that, that explains a lot ;0) Anyway, when we are so busy we have no time to think or mull ideas over. I have friends who are very scheduled and they say they enjoy it but I wonder if that isn't some sort way of escaping deeper matters for them. If we raise our children to be so busy then they will continue in that life when they are older. Not just for children, we all need "playtime"!

New Release
Collected Poems written by Charlotte Mason graduate Bryana Johnson Now available in paperback and KINDLE
"Bryana Johnson's first collection of poetry establishes her as a Christian poet who communicates the gutsy, bleeding beat of life and death...restoring our confidence that there are poets who labor over the word, and who have something to say that the world needs to hear."
- Nathan Harms, Director, Utmost Christian Writers Foundation
"These poems are works of elegance...In a voice both compassionate and compelling, Bryana presents her readers with works that examine what it means to be human and how our very faults and foibles can, in the end, become instruments of grace."
- Wendy Galgan, editor of Assisi
“Then he breathed upon me and took away the trembling from my limbs and caused me to stand upon my feet. And after that, he said not much, but that we should meet again, and I must go further up and further in. Then he turned him about in a storm and flurry of gold and was gone suddenly.
And since then, O Kings and Ladies, I have been wandering to find him and my happiness is so great that it even weakens me like a wound. And this is the marvel of marvels, that he called me Beloved, me who am but as a dog-”
