Renae at Life Nurturing Education inspired me this week with her post Reason #127 to Homeschool. Renae loves discovering wonderful books with her children. That sure ranks high on my list of “Reasons I love to homeschool!” Here’s another reason why I like homeschooling… We can do it at the kitchen table…. In a cozy […]
Excellence in Blogcasting
I don’t often participate in award nominations, as I don’t have time to read many blogs! But this one was an honor to receive, and one which I gladly pass on. Debbie at Debbie’s Digest gave me this Excellence in Blogcasting award for my recent Home Library Builders series (watch for the next installment forthcoming […]
Whatever is Lovely: Art Appreciation
One of the very first books I ever read as a new homeschooler was the Charlotte Mason Companion by Karen Andreola. Although I am now following the Classical Method instead of Charlotte Mason, I will be forever grateful that I began my homeschooling journey with this wonderful book, as it had a profound impact […]

More Black Friday Weekend Sales for Educators
I’m glad I planned to stay in for Black Friday! All the kids and I have had strep throat. Our big Thanksgiving plans were canceled and, as it turns out, I was too sick to do anything on Black Friday besides lay in bed. My husband still hit the stores, though, and came back victorious! […]
