This was our first experience with a “Homeschool Day” field trip to the Fort Worth Zoo, and I just have to say WOW!  Homeschoolers show up!  I have been to the Fort Worth Zoo several times, but I have never seen it so incredibly busy!  Way to go, Homeschoolers! The timing couldn’t have been more perfect because next week is Luci’s birthday and she has been asking to go to the zoo for her birthday.  So, when I saw the Fort Worth Zoo was having a Homeschool Day with a nice little discount, we decided to go this week!  Neither Clark...

I have gone my entire life not knowing anything about enzymes - well except those classes in Nursing school, which I'd like to forget.  This all changed several months ago, when it was suggested to me that I try taking some enzyme supplements as part of my wellness routine.  Curious, I started taking some dietary enzymes and was so excited about the results and how I felt, that I started digging around to learn more about them.  I wanted to learn all about enzymes and why they are so important. Now, with a little knowledge under my belt, I’m convinced that everyone...

From the moment I learned that I was pregnant with my second child, my thought and hope has been that my children would be best friends. Not just as children, playing together, but as they grow into the teenage years and into adulthood. I want them to forge a lasting, loving friendship that will provide each other with support and understanding when they need it most. We Have to Create Our Own Reality Having grown up in a very large family, I was more than familiar with sibling rivalry - the bickering and the arguing that goes on between siblings. I was...

Today we went on a field trip to the Frontiers of Flight Museum in Dallas. It was such a great day! A little confession:  I think I might enjoy our field trips more than Clark and Luci do! The Glorious Flight Study We’ve been studying the award winning children’s story, The Glorious Flight as part of our Five in a Row curriculum.  The Glorious Flight tells the story of Louis Blériot’s efforts in the early 1900s to build a flying machine.  Clark, especially, has taken a real interest in airplanes, so we went to the library and got every book we could about...

We’ve been reading the book The Glorious Flight as part of our Five in a Row curriculum.  This is an awesome curriculum based on classic children’s literature in which you read one book for 5 days in a row.  Each day, you focus on a different subject from the book. The Glorious Flight is the story of the Frenchman, Louis Blériot, who worked for many years to build an airplane.  After many efforts and many failures, he was finally able to fly across the English Channel, winning a contest in the process. I had chosen this book specifically because for weeks Clark had been asking...

Clark lost his first tooth!  It was surprisingly uneventful, without days or even weeks of telltale wiggling, in fact without any drama whatsoever.  He just surprised me one morning as I came home from work, holding a little baby tooth.  He was excited and so was I, except for that tiny little voice in the back of my head that whispered like it always does, “Look at young handsome little boy!  He’s growing up so fast!” The crafty side of my brain immediately goes to Pinterest and all of the cute, fun ideas for celebrating the loss of the first tooth,...
