My First Christmas Tree
Posted by LisaV | 0 comments
I’ll never forget my first Christmas tree, not as a child, but as an expectant mom at the age of 26. Christmas trees did not grace our home when I was growing up. It simply wasn’t something we did. My brother and I received Christmas gifts and hung stockings on our wall shelves, since we had no fireplace, but we did not...
Why Do I Homeschool?
Posted by Guest | 0 comments
As we approach upon the new school year, that question always arises: why do I home school? Is it to give my children an excellent education, far superior to public schools?

So many changes in such a short time! This past month has had me on an emotional roller coaster as I have dealt with the transitional period following my husband deploying. You see, every time he goes my son, Xander, begins his downward spiral of excess energy, noisy nonsense, and general chaos. Moms of children on the spectrum...

As I write this, it is just the beginning of the month of November. Halloween has come and gone, and here on Vancouver Island, the rains are now beginning to make their appearance. The foliage is at it’s peak, and is now starting to fall away and blow pretty much everywhere. This is the time of the year when homeschooling...
Simple Schooling
Posted by Guest | 0 comments
Over the last few years, I have been trying to incorporate principles of simple living into my life. My goal is to focus on what’s important and get rid of what’s unimportant. Benefits to this include less hurry, more relaxation, less clutter (time and stuff), and spending less money. More recently, I have made a...

It’s easy to get into the ho-humness of it all, especially if you been homeschooling for many years. And then suddenly, it happens! A spark of joy! And I’m not talking...
