Character Building 101

How would you describe a person with good character?

Here’s a simple description that comes to my mind:

A person with good character is honorable. They do what they say…and what they do, say, and even think is full of integrity. They work with perseverance toward excellence and easily accept that failure is simply an opportunity to grow or try again. They treat everyone with kindness, have a willingness to help, and specifically have courage to stand up when necessary.

Gosh, that seems lofty, doesn’t it?

Do you even know someone in real life that fits that definition perfectly?

The truth is, on this side of heaven, even adults don’t have “good character” all the time. We get angry, we cut corners, we give up, and we even whine more than we’d like to admit. (So, I guess we could say that character building isn’t something that’s reserved for kids only. And, maybe you shouldn’t be surprised when the character building ideas you implement in your home after this class help you in some significant ways, too.)

Have you ever considered the reason it’s called character “building”? Well, how does a building grow? It grows one new material at a time. As we go through life adding to our good character qualities, we grow a little bit here and a little bit there.

HERE’S SOME GREAT NEWS…

As parents, we have the wonderful opportunity to specifically lay a wonderful, strong, and sturdy foundation for a lifetime of character growth in our children through purposeful character building! 

Whether you have a child with some specific character issues that you’d like to retrain or you simply want to start laying that good foundation, this class will provide you will all kinds of creative ideas. (Bring a notebook!) We’ll talk about how to specifically teach good character qualities, how to sneak character building in, and even how to encourage it during productive discipline.

This masterclass contains Christian references, viewpoints, and resources. You certainly don’t have to be a Christian to get lots of creative ideas for character building in your home, though!

1.5 hours of training

BONUS: You’ll have forever access to the video replay and can ask additional questions in a special Facebook group set up just for you!

Happy birthday to my favorite girl in the world! L Happy birthday to my favorite girl in the world! Love you, @mahaylawest_1! 🥰
The breath of God produces ice,⠀ and the broad The breath of God produces ice,⠀
and the broad waters become frozen.⠀
He loads the clouds with moisture;⠀
he scatters his lightning through them.⠀
At his direction they swirl around⠀
over the face of the whole earth⠀
to do whatever he commands them.⠀
He brings the clouds to punish people,⠀
or to water his earth and show his love.⠀
Listen to this, Job;⠀
stop and consider God’s wonders. ⠀

When my boys were little, I loved reading these “letters from God” to them as blessings to start the day.
As I was sorting bookshelves earlier this month, I stumbled across this sweet book again. I decided the blessings are still as pertinent today for my bigger boy as they were years ago. So, we’re starting our day yet again with a quick, but powerful “letter from God” before jumping into our daily Bible studies.
Do you do anything special to start your day off on the right foot? I’d love to hear about it!
Click the link in my bio for a link to the book.

Winter homeschooling can be tough in normal years. Winter homeschooling can be tough in normal years. It’s cold, the days are dark, and everyone’s cooped up together 24/7. That’s a recipe for the winter blahs to march right into your house and wreak havoc on attitudes and motivation.⠀
⠀
This year’s winter is unlike any other and those blahs may have actually settled in long before now. If you or your children are feeling down, anxious, or bored with school, are “at” each other constantly, bouncing off the walls, or tears and fighting are the norm…the blahs are there.⠀
⠀
Let’s get you, your children, and your homeschool back on track. I’ll be teaching a Homeschool Masterclass on Thursday afternoon to help you kick the blahs to the curb. If you can attend live, come! If you can’t attend live, catch the replay!⠀
⠀
We’ll tackle all sorts of problems the blahs bring with them with very practical  ideas that are easy to implement! ⠀
⠀
Click the link in my bio to join me. There is no shame in admitting that the blahs have arrived and you need a little boost from a friend. ❤️ ⠀

Oh, what peace this quote brings to my soul. It’ Oh, what peace this quote brings to my soul. It’s true, you know. I’ve told my children for years that it only takes a nature walk to see God through His handiwork and to know that His promises are true.⠀
⠀
When the world seems to be falling apart around you, the sun never stops shining. The seasons never stop moving. Without a single, solitary effort of human hands, the woodlands still buzz with life.⠀
⠀
A student of nature can see the consistency in cycles and notice the incredible and creative intricacy of even the smallest specimen and be in awe that we truly serve a God who isn’t unaware of even one tiny detail in our world right now. ⠀
⠀
Life kind of seems overwhelming, though, I know. Remember when I said my motto lately has been to just put one foot in front of the other to do the next right thing? Nature walks (even when it’s cold) never fail me as a right thing. ⠀
⠀
Breathe, friend. Take a nature walk today and let God speak to your soul.⠀

It might seem trite to post a winter picture book It might seem trite to post a winter picture book list right now, but I’m a big believer in keeping things as normal as possible in my home when things aren’t so normal otherwise.⠀
⠀
It’s the principle of putting one foot in front of the other as you simply do the next right thing. Good books almost always can be a “next right thing” choice.⠀
⠀
Even though I’m not homeschooling younger children anymore, I’ll probably never stop sharing wonderful picture book ideas with you. 🤓 I’ve spent way too many hours reading and collecting to ever stop loving them!⠀
⠀
Eli and I may not be using these books right now, but they are still some of my favorites for winter reading. Whatever may be going on around you, the winter months are always a good time of year to get in lots of extra reading. Snuggling and hot chocolate are optional, but encouraged.⠀
⠀
