"Once our eyes are opened, we cannot pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act." Proverbs 24:12



“There are no strangers here; Only friends you haven’t yet met.”- William Butler Yeats

Three very happy kiddos that have been so excited to go to "Mama's Homeschool". That's what they call it. So cute!


I'm not sure if many of you knew, but I've been homeschooling Amanda now for almost a year. She's doing beyond great! I've prayed and prayed about whether or not to homeschool the little ones and each time I have, I would feel God's nudging me to do so. I waited. I prayed some more and again, the answer was, "Yes! This is what I want you to do." So here we are!

Summer's almost over and we've been busy, busy, busy. (Lots of pictures to be shared soon) We've had trips to the beach, weekly trips to the movies, to the park, lots of pool playing at our new house, and playdates with friends. Soon it will all be coming to a close. On August 23rd, Mama's Homeschool will be open for business! Our curriculum is set and we just need to get a few more odds and ends to complete what we hope and expect to be a spectacular year!

I know many of you homeschool and as I've picked brains asked many of you on FaceBook for your ideas, I'm also asking those of you that read the blog.

It's gonna be a whole new world for all of us. We're excited and ready to jump in with both feet! We have lots of plans that include many fun activities while we learn!

If you homeschool or even if you don't, and have resources, ideas, or just want to give me your input, feel free to email me or leave me a comment. As always, I love hearing from you!!!!

Oh, if you're wondering about socialization for the kids.....read THIS! I loved it!
