"She buys the Day Hours as being the simplest name and, when she has succeeded in finding her way about in them, begins her habit of reading them.
She grows to value them. The Hours seem to thread the day and give it meaning; like the windows of China Court, they reflect the day: dawn, sunset, evening, dusk, and night until, 'The night is past and the day is at hand....Cast off the works of darkness...put on the armor of light. Let us walk honestly as in the day....' "
Rumor Godden, China Court

"Ideas
won't keep; something must be done about them."
- Alfred Whitehead

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.
