We met at college here in Kentucky and dated off and on, then ended up engaged well before graduation. My degree is a BS in agriculture and he was a chemist/musician major but now is a Certified Financial Planner, doing what he loves. I am now a stay-at-home mom, which I love.
I've always loved animals. We have had a horse, several dogs and cats, and various smaller creatures over the yeas. Currently, we are down to one large dog and two cats, after moving to a subdivision in 2017 from the farm.
I've always loved children, and spent some teenage summers as a camp counselor. I've worked with different groups of kids at church, and tried my hand a substitute teaching. I've always been told I would make a great teacher, but the traditional classroom has never felt right to me. So, I taught my own son, using Ambleside Online's free curriculum and the Charlotte Mason method from 1st-7th grades. Now that he is a moody teen who needs to make more of his own decisions, we have taken a side trail to a computer-based curriculum. *sad face*
So, down a long, meandering road we went. This blog has focused on homeschooling for several years, but I have had a year off and will now change directions a bit, as life leads.
I hope this blog is helpful and encouraging to you on your life journey!
