Today I am sharing some great tips on Homeschooling for FREE in the Elementary ages over at Free Homeschool Deals. But, sometimes you just need to use bought curriculum. We use it for several reasons, but one BIG reason is that I find it keeps us on track much better. We’ve only been homeschooling for [...]
Yep…today is my birthday! A woman never reveals her age, so let’s just say I’m holding firm at 29!!! Today has been a typical Monday for sure! I think we should outlaw birthday’s on Mondays. It’s been a rough one for sure! But I am so thankful to be a Mommy to these four wonderful blessings. [...]
By Terri Johnson – co-author of Homeschooling ABCs – an online class starting this month for brand new homeschoolers We’ve all seen it… or, at least, heard about it… the homeschooled child who wins the geography bee, or the one who graduates at the age of 15, or the one who excels in musical accomplishments… [...]
If you’re just joining me, you can catch up with Part 1 here. Before I get started, I have linked up a friends post in the Blog Hop, but it truly warrants another mention here. I have known Lindsay since she was a little thing. In fact, (this is going to tell my age) I [...]
