Teach them to love Jesus, learning, adventure, and each other.
As a homeschooler, I was allowed to join the track and field day at the nearby school every year. The day was filled with obstacle courses, relays, running races, and a celebratory box of 2 in 1 flavoured Nerds to consume on the bus ride home. I loved every part of that day except for...

I clicked the submit button. The confirmation email that shortly followed confirmed we were on the waitlist for the fall. But isn't it funny how sometimes you can get surprised by things in life? I was surprised when I got an email saying that three of my boys could start immediately at the one-day-a-week school... Continue Reading →

I remembered how our pen had run out of ink in the middle of signing our registry, and how we just 'fake signed' instead. It made me laugh again... Continue Reading →
"I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June." —L.M. Montgomery "But I don't know what to do..." He had said that day at the beach. Sometimes it's easy to feel like your creativity is out of practice. When summer first arrived it felt like we were... Continue Reading →
"T - 22 minutes." I said as I slathered the 8th warm sourdough bun with honey. We were fully immersed in a lunchtime assembly line, powering up before our SpaceX launch party. We found out about the launch a few days ago. We had been patiently waiting with our homemade straw rockets made from the NASA website... Continue Reading →
