My sweet boy started kindergarten today. I was mixed with emotion last night and this morning, knowing what a huge step this is for him. It’s not a huge change because we’ve already been doing Pre-K at home with him for awhile. I know that he’s ready, but waiver on if his momma is.

I have had some people ask how homeschool is going. It’s going GREAT. I love it, they love it, our lives are so much less stressful. I worried about adding yet another thing to my already full plate, but truly, it has allowed us to slow down in so many other ways, life is much more simple now. And that simplicity gives me more time that I can […]
