To my credit, it is usually something that I feel would be beneficial to our family in some way. One of my latest obsessions […]

A new school year is upon us and we have chosen to continue homeschooling. I go back and forth in my mind about this decision almost daily. I can see so many benefits obviously to homeschooling, however, I can also see the benefits to sending them to school in person. For now, this is what […]
