Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Posted on December 23, 2015January 24, 2020 by Mary

I think it's sort of amazing how things fall into place in our school sometimes. Late this fall I still hadn't chosen the Christmas hymn we would study in December. I'm usually more prepared, but I hadn't had time to study and research as I have had in the past. Normally I would plan ahead, … Continue reading Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I love the surprises on this Charlotte Mason journey. As my daughter and I were finishing a rather long conversation last week, our talk shifted to our various personal challenges.

It was exciting to get this beautiful book in the mail this week. The cover is genius. I loved it as soon as I saw it. The author is right, it isn't a field guide in the truest sense. But it is a lot of fun to look at, and it draws you in. The … Continue reading Nature Anatomy!

Hey there!

Welcome to Eventide! My name is Mary, and my husband Michael and I love using Charlotte Mason's method to educate our nine children (a mix of biological, adopted and foster). We have graduated our oldest two children, one is doing very well at college, the other is working full time and studying for his auto mechanic certification. I teach the rest of our children at home. We are so thrilled with each of the children God has set into our family, and are grateful for this chance to learn together at home.

Thanks for stopping by, if you would like to contact me directly, you can email me at marybeuving@gmail.com

My Talks from the Living Education Retreat

I've decided it would be alright to share these talks with those who want to easily find them. I have met so many wonderful people over these past few years, and I am very grateful for your comments on these talks. Thanks to my kind friends Nancy Kelly and Art Middlekauff, I am able to share my talks from past Living Education Retreats. For my talk on Simplicity in 2017, you can follow this link to Art's post on Charlotte Mason Poetry. For my talk on Trusting Mason's Method, from 2018 you can follow this link to Sage Parnassus. Thank you Nancy and Art for sharing these talks!
