  • Planning the Homeschool Year

    Hello! It’s been a minute since I’ve been on here! Life has gotten away from me… So much has happened and I’m not sure where to start or what exactly to update on… Let’s talk about homeschool since it’s actually in the name of the blog. I have enjoyed having the summer off and this…

  • The Bright Side

    I’m a completely different person than I’ve ever been before. I know we all grow and change… but my change has been all encompassing! Every aspect of my life has changed, from what I eat, the way I use the kitchen, the people I surround myself with, what is going into my brain on a…

  • Everything In God’s Timing

    A couple of things that I’m learning… that maybe you are learning as well, have already been on this path and remember… or wherever you are on this journey. It’s so easy to get caught up buying the latest gadget, whether for the kitchen, the garden, or even just shampoo. The costs of things these…

  • Palm Sunday!

    I am a little overwhelmed as to completing all of the tasks before me. I’m kind of behind on homeschool planning and everyone is already planning for next year… sheesh! Making me feel even farther behind. But one thing I have learned over the years… just because Jack and Sally are doing something, doesn’t mean…

  • Homeschool Resources

    Some resources that I have stumbled upon that are invaluable to me now: Pam Barnhill and community! Pam Barnhill has so many great resources.

  • Steering Clear of Overwhelm

    Are you like me? Do you have a hard time saying “no”? I suffer by not being able to say no… everything always sounds amazing and things I know I’d really enjoy. Then I find myself with too many things started … nothing is getting finished … and I’m FROZEN in a state of overwhelm.…

  • SO Good Roast

    So I said I’d share recipes when I find good ones. This roast was so delicious that the whole family loved it and (this has never happened before) there wasn’t enough… all the kids wanted more. Since I’m on the Trim Healthy Mama plan, I modified the original recipe to meet my dietary needs, and…

  • Ingredients?

    Today totally filled my cup! I had a friend come over and she was super excited to tell me about her homesteading and homeschooling journey! We talked about kids and potty training, adhd and what I’m doing for T to help, we worked together to clean up and reorganize some areas of my house… She’s…

  • Contentment

    Do you ever just look around and feel really really content? With your “stuff”? What you’ve accomplished for the day? Your family and your home and your cooking and your homeschooling and your parenting … just all of it? I found myself here today. I sat down, after having an amazing meal, curled up on…
