This weekend was National Scrapbook Day and I had one goal in mind…to scrap something! Along with some shopping, I did get a few pages scrapped and I’m excited to share them with you.

We have started doing freewriting on Fridays in our homeschool. Last week was our first week and my girls enjoyed it so much that they’ve been looking forward to freewriting today all week long.

I had an idea in my head of what I wanted to do, but sometimes the actual doing of an idea gets me stuck. Lynette’s Photo Carousel was exactly what I needed to get un-stuck.

He has {Read More}

I was a public school teacher for six years before having my own children and becoming a stay at home mom. I taught middle school special education. Yeah…it was a tough, but very rewarding job. I even earned the title of “Teacher of the Year” for one school year. I always knew that we would homeschool our children. I was called to it before we had children and once we had them that calling was confirmed many times over. One {Read More}
It’s been a while since I’ve posted my list of Blessings and I’ve missed it! I’m trying to get back into a good posting schedule and figuring out what works best to maintain balance. I’ll be posting my “Blessings All Mine” posts on Wednesdays. I’ve also started tagging instagram photos of blessings that I am counting with the #blessingsallmine hashtag. You’re welcome to join in!
