Wow... we haven't posted for a loooonnnnnnnngggg time! Sorry... but we have been so busy with, well, Omnibus! Haha... Anyway, we have been going through the "Histories," by Herodotus. It's been very interesting. Herodotus loves to go off on little rabbit trails all the time. Sometimes it gets kinda boring.. but, it's a pretty cool book (well, personally not one of my favorites). We are also going thought Prince Caspian (it is in our secondary books). I love Narnia... it is so fun to read! C.S Lewis sure had a gift in writing, especially when he wrote "Till We have Faces." Okay, I better stop talking... just to let you know, we get two weeks off for Christmas and stuff. Well, God Bless you all and I hope you have a Merry Christmas!

The Twelve Caesars
The Twelve Caesars is, well, obviously about twelve caesars beginning with Julius Caesar (who began the reign of Caesars) and ending with the Emporer, Domitian.
All were pagans who did not yield to God but set themselves up as gods. In reading this book, we can learn of men who seem to win during their life. They seem to escape God and do what evil they please without any judgement. But although it seems as if God loses and the Emporers win, God will sit on the throne one day and will judge all people (even evil Emporers). He will WIN. All men will yield and give an account to God. No one escapes. Not even the Twelve Caesars.

It is awesome to see God working in each of you and developing a greater love for reading among the many other unique gifts He has blessed you with. Use all that you learn for His glory. Continually pray for knowledge, wisdom, and understanding in all that you read.
Great comment Destiny and it was good hearing from one of you students again on what you are learning. Keep us posted as we also learn from it. You are spreading it forward. Don't get too used to have a week off. Love you, Grandma Dot
