Post Election Day Thoughts
It's post Election Day and Facebook is looking a little rough today. Well, really all of my social media channels are disappointing and discouraging me right now. There's so much negativity, either in the fear, or in the gloating. Friends, say these words out loud: Let the words ...
To the Tired Out Toddler Mom
I was visiting my brother’s house at bedtime last night. It was the last night my nephew went to bed as a 2 year old. He put on a bit of a show jumping on his bed and fussing before picking out a bedtime story and settling in. In his defense, he had his birthday party the day ...

You may have read that title and decided you’d just pass on this post. I get it. Joy in the morning? Who says that? Now granted, as a homeschool mom we typically aren’t doing the mad rush of getting everyone up, dressed, fed, and out the door with everything they need for the day within an hour ...
