Oh! We are reading Macbeth at school! I can't wait to show the students this picture!

This is so neat! I watched a performance of Macbeth a year or two ago (my brother was in it) and I don't recall any references to the The Stone, but I hadn't heard of it at that point either. My kids and I watched Stone of Destiny a while back and they will love to see a photo of the actual stone. They are quite proud of their own Scottish heritage and properly outraged by the misuse of The Stone :)

    A Charlotte Mason education leads to all kinds of ideas! Join me in keeping one or several of the notebooks she prescribed and discover the Science of Relations and the Art of Mindfulness.

    "Perhaps this is one of the secrets of life--to know 'glory' when we see it." 
    --Charlotte Mason

    Virtual Life?

    A wee explanation: this website was created as a way to amplify the daily surprise of seeing glory in one small life.  The notebook entries represented here are all selected from things actually lived and noted on paper in an effort to live the full life British educator Charlotte Mason so ably championed.  ​ 

    In Appreciation
    Photos chosen are linked to their original posts in most cases because I have found something of value there and hope my readers will likewise find a helpful resource.  In the case of miss-attribution or if you desire your work not be linked, please let me know.
