Packing for our Epic Road Trip adventure! Today is Day 1 of our Epic Road Trip Adventure! But the preparations began last week when we pulled all of the camping gear out of the shed to take stock of what we had and what we needed.
Blog Hop: Women Writing I love to talk. And teach. And share. And talk more. I was homeschooled when I was growing up. When I was a kid it wasn’t common to meet other homeschoolers and my mom was a brave woman to go against the social norms. I didn’t lack for friends or […]

I started on the breakfast dishes and realized that my 18 month old wasn’t standing next to me unloading the dishwasher as I loaded it. In fact, I couldn’t hear him or the 3 year old at all.
