Holidays

Don't you love this time of year? We just celebrated Thanksgiving, and we are now preparing and looking forward to Christmas and New Year's celebrations. This time between Thanksgiving and New Years is a special time. Like most other families, this is a time when we become more intentional about spending time with our friends and family - and especially our children. Spending time with our children is something that a homeschooler tend to do a lot of, but when a holiday rolls around, we get really serious about creating happy moments and memories. Our...

It kind of felt like that Easter morning when my children came to tell me, giggling, that they didn't believe in the Easter Bunny. In fact, they claimed, they never did. While they were still toddlers, they apparently casually watched from their bedroom window as I got home from a night shift. I allegedly ran around the yard, hiding eggs in all sorts of places. They watched it all and never said a word. For YEARS! Although I do remember thinking how strange it was that they ran straight for the eggs and found...

Fall is here, and it's time to break out the Halloween decorations! It's time to get your home ready for all the ghosts and goblins that will be coming your way! Halloween has always been one of my children's favorite celebrations - not for what it stands for, mainly because it comes with free candy and the opportunity to dress up. So every year, we do seasonal crafts and decorate the house. One of our favorite ways to decorate for Halloween is to make a million little spider webs. They are fun, and an easy...

If I were to make a generalization, I'd say Moms are some of the most selfless people that exist. Now add to that, Homeschool Moms, and you have some of the most magnanimous, generous, and self-sacrificing souls on the planet. They rarely buy a thing for themselves. It's always about the children, friends, the homeschool, etc. So listen, friend - whether you are a husband, child, relative, or friend to one of these special women, I'm going to help you out. Here are 10 Valentines Day gifts any Homeschool Mom would love. They work hard...

Mother's Day is fast approaching, and if you're anything like me, you will understand my struggle with gift-giving. I love giving gifts, but I am severely challenged when it comes to knowing what to give. So, in anticipation of Mother's Day, I took a poll of several of my friends who are great gift-givers, asking them for Mother's Day ideas that I can share with you. Together with a few of my own personal favorites, I built a list of 10 Mother's Day gifts that you can be sure she will love. 1. Lilly Pulitzer Ceramic Mug There's something about drinking coffee...

When it comes to commercialized holidays, I like to go against the tide. Now, I won't lie, I absolutely appreciate flowers or a thoughtfully written card. And let's be honest, I'll never refuse diamonds. I'll probably even eat the sub-par chocolate because I have a problem that way. But what's the deal with over-priced teddy bears and crowded restaurants? Definitively not my cup of tea. This year, we decided to skip the commercial route, and did things a little differently. Together with my kiddos, we are making simple DIY gifts that we would all love. We settled on essential oil- infused...
