Freudian Slip?

Amy Welborn has a thread going about slips of the tongue people have made during scripture readings and prayers. My most embarrassing: during bedtime prayers with the kids one night, my mind wandered (forgive me). Near the end of the Our Father, my children suddenly burst out laughing.

“Mommy,” guffawed Jane, “did you just say ‘deliver us from email‘?”

Mea culpa…

When Nathaniel first spoke, he pronounced the letters “F” and “V” like “S.” This resulted in the line, “We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Giver of Life” sounding like “We Belize in the Holy Spirit, the gizzard of lice.”

In 2006, a year after I began this blog, I coined the term Tidal Homeschooling to describe my family’s homeschooling style, an ebb and flow of
high tide (planned, Charlotte Mason-ish) and low tide (unschoolish, delight directed) learning. You’ll sometimes see me call it Tidal Learning. Seventeen years later (and counting), the metaphor still works. At the time of this writing (January 2023), I’m enjoying tidal homeschooling with Huck and Rilla, my two youngest, now in their teens.

If you’d like to read more about tidal homeschooling, there are a bunch of posts at this link.
