So Wednesday was our first warm day here in New England. The first warm day is always magical. Like all New Englanders, when we heard it was going to hit 70, we donned our [Kenny] flip-flops and promised to stay outdoors all day long. I digress… The point of my story is that we spent…

Some folks set out to homeschool. It has always been a part of their plan. And that’s wonderful! I am blessed to know so many phenomenal, amazing, creative, wonderful homeschoolers now. But, back then, I knew not a homeschoolin’ soul. Homeschooling had never crossed my mind… until I found myself suddenly, unexpectedly, homeschooling. Now, of course,…

Can you believe it is 2016? One thing I love about starting a new year is reflecting on the year before. I love to look back on where we were this time last year and see the growth and changes. When I first found myself suddenly and unexpectedly homeschooling, I relied heavily on the internet for guidance….

A Homeschool Day Through HIS eyes (A Day in the Life of a 7-year-old Homeschooler) One day in early July, in a brave moment, I handed over my iPad to Leo for the entire day. He wanted to write a blog post documenting the day through his eyes, and I thought it was a fantastic idea (albeit…

Learn Nothing Day 2015 I’ve mentioned before that I consider our family to be unschool-leaning, but because I am homeschooling a quirky, asynchronous, PG/2E/full-of-OE little fella who loves curriculum, sometimes the unschoolers don’t see us as unschool-y.
