Want to know more about me and this site? You’re in the right place! I am a busy, homeschool mama of five (one girl and two sets of twin boys) and I’m married to my bff!
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!!
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 have my BA 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…as in 6’2” and I earned a scholarship to play collegiate basketball.
~ In my “spare” time I used to enjoy scrapbooking. But, now that I’m about 10 years behind, I’ve resorted to being satisfied with simply getting the pictures off my computer and into a regular photo album! No judgment, please!
~ 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 precious 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!
