Welcome! I’m Jennifer (aka Mama Jenn) and I’m so glad you’re here! Want to know more about me and this site?? Well, you are in the right place! I am a busy, homeschool mother of five amazing kiddos! My daughter (and only girl) is 18 years old. I also have two sets of twin boys (ages 16 and 14). Yep, you read that right…and no, it’s not a typo. While people tend to tell me I’ve got “double trouble,” they are wrong! I am “doubly blessed!”

I love spending time with my family. Hello, family movie night and family game night! The kiddos constantly keep my husband and me laughing (and sometimes, pulling our hair out)!

Never a dull moment in our house!!

Much of my time is spent teaching and carpooling my kids to their various activities. (I really do feel like I’m running a taxi service most days!) But, when I’m not busy doing all that (plus the usual – cooking and cleaning), I enjoy spending time right here, blogging! More on that in just a bit!

A few facts about me:

  • I was a math geek in school…I often stayed after class to ask my geometry teacher for extra proofs to work on. Yep, that was me!
  • I went on to earn my BA degree in Mathematics and my Masters degree in Education.
  • I taught high school math until I decided to trade in my class size of 35+ students for a much smaller class size that consisted of the children that sat at my kitchen table! I have homeschooled my kids from the very start.
  • I am tall…really tall! Once I started to appreciate my height (and stopped walking with my knees slightly bent so that I appeared shorter), I put my long 6’2” body to good use and earned a scholarship to play collegiate basketball.
  • I used to be what you would call a perfectionist. Though, having kids…many kids…has changed all that! I sometimes find myself longing for the long, lost days of complete organization and order. But, when I take a look across the dinner table at those wonderful faces, I can’t help but thank God for the chaos and disorder, though I still often find myself trying (in vain) to regain some sense of structure!

What this website is all about:

I started my blog back in 2008 as an outlet from my world that consisted mainly of nursing babies, changing diapers, and singing the ABC song. Somehow while I was busy raising 5 kids under the age of 5, I decided to create my own little corner of the online world. As with most blogs of that time, I shared the everyday happenings of my family.

However, as the years have passed, my focus has shifted and so has my blog content. As I began to homeschool my children, I found it to be quite difficult to find some of the learning resources we needed. So, I made them myself and I shared them with others online. And, I continue to share them!

Homeschooling can be difficult for the parent and boring for the child. But, it doesn’t have to be! My goal here on the blog to help you homeschool with ease and creativity by providing educational activities, crafty ideas, and homeschool resources along with loads of free printables that can be used by anyone with a heart to make learning fun and engaging. Along the way, I also provide quality, family time ideas and I share about the always full, never dull, mama lifestyle!
