I suppose this page could contain any number of things about myself; I am married, I have four children whom I homeschool, and I like research and organization. While any of those might tell you the facts, they won’t tell who I am or why I do what I do. So…
Who am I? I am a young lady whose heart is to serve the Lord with all of my being in the role I play as a wife, mother, and teacher; to live my life to bring Him glory and honor while being a helpmeet to my husband and while preparing my children to be adults who will walk in God’s truth; that my life might be a blessing to those around me and further His kingdom.
My heart is that while reading my blog you would further your relationship with Him and that He would use this blog to help you accomplish that to which He has called you, whether it’s homeschooling, being a mom, being a wife, or just being a daughter of the King. May this blog bless you and better equip you in your service to our God and Savior.

Thanks for taking the time to read one of my posts. I am enjoying perusing your blog as a result. I have taught for what seems like all my life in public school. Recently moved out of state and after a year of being a SAHM I have happened upon two great children who I am homeschooling the language arts portion of their day. Teaching with passion and purpose is my life… and I can see the we may just become fast virtual friends based on our mutual love for all things organization and structure, homeschooling, and our Savior! Read and write on!

Homeschooling isn’t for everyone, we each need to pray about our choices and let the Lord lead in our homes. However, I’m not sure who told you that you weren’t qualified. You do not need to take courses in order to homeschool, I’m sure you could do it. Besides, who decides what ‘successful’ is?
Thank you for the encouragement though. I’m blessed to know you enjoyed what you read on our blog. 🙂

Thank you so much for stopping by my Blog today. I am just preparing to start my, and my daughter’s, homeschool adventure as soon as this school year ends. (She is in public school right now and I am pulling her starting next year). I am working as hard and quickly as I can to get a viable curriculum set up and am trying to to be too nervous about the whole thing. It really was very encouraging to have someone like a post who is as experienced as you seem to be. Thanks for putting some extra wind in my sails!
