{Driving} just over three hours round trip in the (somewhat pathetic, not actually lying) snow so that we could enjoy

{Surprising} a friend on their birthday. And apparently he was very surprised. So that was good.

{Enjoying} catching up with lots of other friends.

{Failing} in the decluttering quest. Net gain of bags today of people returning stuff to me!

{Eating} the most magnificent birthday cake.

{Snapshots} Big has started German lessons with Tim, Small hit a brick wall with creative writing, Smallest has lived getting creative with lots of Baker Ross review products and Tigerboy displayed scary physical skills climbing stairs.

    Have you played with Swype on your phone with Small? Assuming you haven’t added too many rude words to your dictionary, it’s really good fun to see what wild Swyping produces! You can craft into poems or stories.

After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.

I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to freshen things up, there’s something here to help. These are the tools, guides, and materials I’d recommend to a friend, because they work.
