Valentines and Silly Homeschool Fears

In the past month I have had three people contact me about homeschooling.  They want to know how to get started, all about the support groups and the academics, and how I manage to have time to myself.

Inevitably they also ask me if my kids miss out on "socializing" and things like class parties.

Growing Turkeys ~ A Story of a Memory

 Thanksgiving made me stop and consider some important family relationships.    

My husband's father is very dear to me.   He lives just a few miles away and takes such an interest in my children and I.   

He was born during The Great Depression, raised in rural Alabama, eventually married and then did quite well for himself.  

He was brought up in a time when family lived near each other.  They CARED about and for each other.
