		<description>HI.
I am a homeschool mom AND I love to write.. problem is, with all the other &quot;stuff&quot; in life.. I can barely fit in the homeschool stuff much less any other &quot;stuff&quot;.. so HOW do you do it amy??? I mean, you blog, you advise AND you homeschool.. HOW, HOW, and did I mention that I want to know HOW/WHEN do you find the time?? hmmmmmm? Out with it sister! 

By the way.. I&#039;m 49.... yes! A bit PAST the &quot;normal&quot; age of homeschool moms.. My Colby is actually my 3rd cousin whom I&#039;ve had custody of since he was just 3.. he will be 7 in nov. and I&#039;ve homeschooled him since Kidnergarten.. we&#039;re in FIRST grade this year..and I&#039;ve enrolled him in football with the pee wee team at our local Rec dept.. STILL wondering.. WHAT WAS I THINKING with that move!! 
My hubby is pastor of a small community church, and I was a practicing nurse till this May when the dr&#039;s decided I don&#039;t need to nurse or anything else like that. I&#039;ve got some health problems... Well, I&#039;ve been thinking God wanted me to stay home and just be Mom and wife for a while now.. guess he figured it was time and took it out of my stubborn hands.. OK, wait.. i&#039;ve got to catch my breath... you catch yours too.....

ok, ready? MY two boys are grown Andy will be 28 in Dec and Travis is 25.... Kenny and I have been married for 12 yrs, come this oct the 4th... Kenny has two boys from a marriage from his teen years...  they are 15 and 16... Oh, I have had a couple of articles published in nursing magazines and I do some reviewing for the same publishing company....you know, suggesting if to publish or not to publish articles they receive for consideration... oK enough about me.... I LOVE This site!

		<description>I&#039;m always looking for better (and cheaper) math manipulatives.  These are some great ones.  You can also use playing cards with the face cards removed for zillions of games to practice math facts.  Let red cards be negative to practice with signed numbers.</description>

		<description>I read in one of the books - I think the homeschool book of ideas - to give kids measuring cups outside with bird seed. Great idea ! No mess to worry about.</description>
