Blurb: Term coined by Gelett Burgess [1907] famous for purple cow poems:
I never saw a purple cow,Each week, I will be writing a short Blurb about matters related to schooling and parenting. My goal in this is twofold. One is to have us take a few minutes to stop and thing. Because of the busyness of life, I need this. I need to reflect often on what I am doing and why. The second goal is to have us stop and think together. Because we are designed to live in communitites, we at ICS are bound together by common concerns of educating our children. That commonality means that we must have an ongoing conversation about the best ways to accomplish those ends. We need to reflect on what He says is important in raising children and educating them. This is an intentional attempt to do that.
I never hope to see one,
But from the milk we're getting now,
There certainly must be one.
However, a piece of paper is only one-sided. It is not a very satisfactory conversation. So please, if you have any comments, questions, and observations about what is written or what we are doing -- please call and talk to me. I am anxious to have this be a dynamic process that engages your ideas as well. Thanks in advance for your part in this conversation.
