What Do Charlotte Mason and "Naked and Blue" Have to Do With Each Other?

How many of us have desired the results of a Charlotte Mason Education: the creativity, expressiveness, deep thinking, and so much more that comes from an immersion in living literature and history, only to have it fall to the wayside under the pressure to complete curriculum, achieve tangible, measurable results, and meet (other's and our own) expectations of achievement?

How do we set our priorities for the educational pursuits of each day? Which tasks are 'musts', which skills have to be in place (and when)?

For some interesting - and entertaining - ponderings on these thoughts, hop over to the ChildLight USA blog, where Sandy Rusby Bell has written a post entitled "Naked and Blue at My Back Door".
