Blessings on you from the Elliott family! Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy today’s newsletter. Good morning and happy new week! It's a new quarter, so I started a new planner. (Yes, mine only lasts 3 months, but I really dump my brain into it.) Today is the day I set it up, reviewing all my goals and praying over the tasks
in the 13 weeks ahead. I thought I'd dip WAY back into the archives today, to show you a post from 2009 (six kids) and 2003 (four kids). I was thinking about time and priorities back then, too. My goal is to bring a little bit of Scripture, a sprinkle of encouragement, and a dash of hope to your day. I love a good cup of coffee (brewed like this), but if some other drink is more your style, I'm sure that will work. The point is for you to take a break from crazy living, just long enough for a sip of joy.
Daily Bible Verse"It is a good thing to give thanks unto YHVH, and to sing praises unto Your name, O Most High; to show forth Your lovingkindness in the morning, and
your faithfulness every night." (Psalm 92:1-2)
tov—good; functional; fulfilling the action for which a person or thing is specially fitted or used,
or for which a thing exists. Source
Oh, if you could have been a fly in my house last night, as my husband and I discussed the ramifications of today’s verse. “She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard” (Proverbs 31:16, KJV). It was made more interesting because I received a blog post from a fellow online businesswoman today. I’ll keep her identity private, because I’m not judging her for her decision, but this is the gist of what she
wrote. Continue Reading

How Do You Get It All Done?By Anne Elliott, October 7, 2003, AnneElliott.com
I think the question I’m asked most often is, “How do you get it all done?” I guess the size of this website and the variety of topics discussed make it appear that I have 36-hour
days and that I am a superwoman who can do it all. There is nothing further from the truth, and you can ask my husband or take a peek in my laundry room if you don’t believe me! But this question has made me think. What is really important in my life, and are all the activities I’m involved in a good reflection of my priorities? Read More

Recently I sent out an email that asked, “What’s the hardest part for you about homeschooling?” I invited everyone to reply and share by email — and wow! So many replies! It’s been 4 days, and
I’m still trying to answer all the emails. However, about 80% of the responses were about how to manage time and schedules. Read
