This is the first time I&#8217;d not seen her dance as she practiced. &#8220;I think you&#8217;ll like it, Mom,&#8221; she told me the night before. I did. Her expression of worship was beautiful.

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Why?&#8221; &#8230; This is a question we often think of toddlers asking. However, believe it or not, it is more typically asked by students in 6th-9th grades. Yes, junior high, or the dialectic stage, is a season full of questions. Even compliant upper-grammar children often turn into questioning, reactive, argumentative dialectics. And guess what?&#8230; That&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

He astutely stated, &#8220;Mom, I read some articles on homeschooling in a magazine and I&#8217;ve come to the conclusion that before we started Tapestry of Grace, we were unschoolers.&#8221; Now, I know some wonderful, successful unschoolers, but that is not a term [...]]]></description>
