A little too ironic….

Lonnie comes home from work not ten minutes ago and starts talking to me about Super-boy taking exams.  He feels it’s important and he wants it to happen.
I guess that gives me a definitive answer then, eh?  I will be putting together a set of exam questions for each subject.  We are still a few [...]

Unschoolerish?

I have started to wonder if I am a little unschoolerish. I realize this is not a word, but I like it anyway!
At the very least I must be an extremely relaxed Charlotte Mason mama. We read the stories daily, Super-boy narrates some of them, acts out some of them, [...]

Three, Oh My!

My baby, my little Monkey, is three years old today. I am no longer the mother of a toddler, and I never will be again. My little one is a preschooler now. *sniff* The past three years have gone by too quickly. Looking back through the photos has been a [...]

Diva Tales

I can say with certainty that Little Miss Diva (age 4)  is an original!

As told to mommy on 10/24/07.

Smiling toes and tummy parties, oh my!

On the way home from ‘trick or treating’ at Mommy & Me and a visit to the library today…
Me: “My toes feel like they are going to sleep! Maybe my shoes are too tight.”
Diva: “Well, my toes feel like they are smiling. Yes, I have smiling toes!” (skips along, holding my hand)
Me: [...]

Ron Paul on Homeschooling…

First posted over at Wisdom Home Academy. We share the love!!!

Um….what?

Me: “Super-boy, why don’t you come in the kitchen and finally eat some breakfast since it’s nearly 10:00.”
SB: “NOOOOOOOOO! I don’t want to! It’s not fair!!!” (cries and whines for several minutes about the injustice of breakfast)

Um….what? When did feeding my kid classify as child abuse? *scratches head*

I am [...]

Pay It Forward Friday!

For those of you who wake up much earlier than I do, sorry! I am sure I go to bed much later.
Anyway, here it is at last, the pay it forward post.
I responded to a pay it forward post last week and since the spirit of pay it forward is to [...]

Remember, remember the 5th of November! (Ron Paul)

Have any of you seen “V for Vendetta?” It’s really an excellent movie about a once free nation (future UK), that is now cowering under tyranny and oppression, and one man standing alone against that tyranny to bring about change. It’s a fictional movie, but how close to true is it becoming in our [...]

What a difference a day makes!!!

Oh my Lord! What a difference a day can make. I actually slept last night. You know, without a fever, chills, body aches and cotton mouth. I woke up without a headache and only a slightly sore throat. I feel like a human being and a mother again. WOOT!
I [...]
