How to Homeschool while Quarantined

March 15, 2020 by Megan Leave a Comment

I'm an elementary school teacher and mother of four. I recently returned to the classroom after being home with my children for 10 years. My children range in ages from 4-11. Many of you may have felt a slight sense of panic and quickly began to wonder how the heck you were going to "teach" your children. Take a deep breath, because you've got this. The very first step to homeschooling your children is to give you and your little ones grace. The second step is to not duplicate school. ...

We have been so busy doing life. This mother's day questionnaire from Eleanor shows that not all my hard work has gone unnoticed. Sometimes it feels like that is all I spend my life doing. The kids are officially done with school and all the sudden I'm stuck wondering where the year went. How is it summer already?

March 22, 2016 by Megan Leave a Comment

Fiona is pretty much a rockstar sleeper. She might wake once for a quick feeding and then back to bed.
