Flexible..... not Flaky!

I heard this today at a meeting I was at, with other homeschool mom's and youth. It made me think....
So I thought I'd share it. I also wanted to write it down, because it's one worth remembering!
Food for thought, and inspiration!

Homeschoolers have one great benefit they are flexible. Homeschoolers have one great fault they are flexible!

This is so true! And a good thing to keep in the back of my mind!
However as we all agree....

The world is our classroom!

Oh, and the flakey part. One mom mentioned she'd much rather be called flexible than flaky!
ENJOY!

So all I am going to say, is it's quite common knowledge that sugar isn't good for you. I am a sugar lover! Always have been, I'm sure. I have a very, very, very sweet tooth. Sugar was hard for me to give up. Which is why I am so thankful for so many natural sweeteners! The reason we stopped, was knowledge, we started studying sugar, and learning about it, and we had to stop. As for our family, we had to give it up all or nothing, we are a cold turkey kind of family!!! We have tried to give up sugar, oh I don't know around 100 times!!! This time it finally stuck. The more I read, the more I study the more I am so thankful for that decision. So how di...
