Edith Hope

Our little miracle arrived early Monday morning and her birth could not have gone more smoothly. It was an amazing, painful, incredible experience and one I am so grateful I was blessed to have.  Her name is Edith Hope, after my Great-Grandma.  She was an incredible woman, strong and brilliant, and someone who has had a major impact on my […]

2016-2017 Homeschool Plans

A new baby will be joining our family at any moment. In fact, for a few hours today I thought she might be on her way already.  But contractions have stopped for now, and I’m hoping she’ll hang on for one more week.  The next few days are pretty full, but after that we’re wide open and ready to be […]

Book Report: August 2016

Shipwreck at the Bottom of the World by Jennifer Armstrong I am completely fascinated by true survival stories.  While Shipwreck is short, it is definitely among my favorites in this genre.  Shackleton’s leadership and survival skills in the midst of extreme conditions was nothing short of incredible.   I knew very little about this expedition before reading this book, but […]

A Peek Into My Art Journal

I have become such a fan of daily creative practice over the past couple of years.  The experience of practicing a skill/ improving a talent has been so richly rewarding for me.  I no longer think, “I wish I was making more art.” without following up or actual pursuing that desire.  I AM making art.  Consistently.  Every day for the […]

Getting out the door first thing is a new experience for this homeschool family.

Our Summer Morning Time Plan

As I’ve mentioned before, we homeschool year round. I love this approach for many reasons, but a few of them include: –A slow and steady approach means we spend less time on schoolwork on a daily basis.  The big kids and I get through most of our learning time in less than an hour first thing in the morning. Independent […]
