Too much. We paid around $ 55,000 last year. I would feel better if the money were well spent and not wasted.
ETA: in addition, we pay $6,000 a year in property taxes.
I LOVE my Odyssey. It is an '04. We will be trading it in soon and getting a new '11 Odyssey. I wouldn't drive anything else!
FYI - I have 4 kids in carseats.
This is where I fall as well. I will teach my children about old earth beliefs, but will avoid things put forth by BioLogos. In explaining OEC to my children, I like the way Reasons To Believe frames their point of view.
Everyone should read this blog and take a look at the crash pictures. If you question the need for car seats ala Freaknomics after that, something is wrong with you. :D
Dress them in layers. The heavy coat comes off, they are buckled in, then you can lay the heavy coat on them for warmth. I know it is a pain, but truly, it could keep your child from being killed.
I know that there is this wonderful Sonlight and WTM book list.
Does anyone know of a week by week style instructor's guide that has been put together for the WTM history cycles?
Thanks so much!!
