We had a roll off delivered to our new property today in order to begin clearing out all the old carpeting and drywall. As the driver backed into the drive, he couldn’t help but notice our many small children running about, anxiously absorbing all that was going on.
How many you got there, miss? Did I [...]
My six year old son told me recently that I had failed him.
You didn’t do enough and I think you can do better.
Said my impromptu performance review. The reviewer lay on the floor on his back, looking at a library book about frogs. Pressed for a more specific description of my problem areas he announced:

We all want what is best for our children. We’ve made the sacrifice to educate them at home. Others make the financial sacrifice to send their [...]
It has been awhile since I have shared much from our homeschool, so I thought I would participate in this week’s Heart Of The Matter meme and show you our school room. Very elaborate and beautifully decorated, I am sure it will be the envy of homeschoolers the world over.
First, we have the independent learning [...]
So, yeah. I’m asking for money. Except that we won’t actually ever see or touch any of it.
