I invite you to please join me for a free Hope Chest Journey presentation. The Hope Chest Journey helps build families, community, and prepare our daughters with an education for a whole life and not just for a nine to five career.

Date- Tuesday Evening 31 August 2010

Time- 7-9 pm

Back to School Days Special

20 August through 31 October 2010

Friends,

Julia, Jennifer and I have discussed at length how this site can be improved and better serve Princess Circles, near and far. The Commons will remain as is, free, and will be added to during the month with a book suggestion,  a point of discussion, at least one activity, and a Woman of Virtue.

Friends,

Princess Principle Theme: The Grace of Friendship and Sisterhood

Princess Principle Theme: The Grace of Diplomacy

Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 

Princess Principle Theme: The Beauty of Femininity- The Core of Godly Womanhood

This month's Hope Chest Journey with my daughter has moved into the realm of modern technology. Last month, I bought a Kodak zi6 (HD Camcorder) to digitally record classes, lectures, and workshops. This month I got the tripod and my husband surprised me with an 8 gig SDHC card.  Mary read the instructions and set up the tripod.  She recorded herself playing the piano and then recorded Monday's full moon, complete with her own commentary.

In January, I started a new Pincess Circle in our home. We have a wide range of ages, but most of the girls are younger. The mothers in our circle chose Little House in the Big Woods as our January book. The Princess Principle theme was The Beauty and Grace of Gifts and Talents.  The Woman of Virtue was Minerva Teichert.  For our heart warming bee, we cut out rag dolls inspired by the ones in the book.
