More “wisdom” from the three year old…
Both of the boys were running through the house (again).  I called them to my room and decided to try and make them think:
Mom:     “I have asked you both to stop running through the house.  Two different times, I have asked you to stop!  You kept running, and now [...]

What It’s All About

A Machete, A Kleenex, and Some School

We’re home from the winds of Northwest Texas!  We had a great visit with my daughter and especially enjoyed the treat of watching her college soccer game on Tuesday.
We tried to keep our schooling on schedule, but failed to get it all done due to about 900 miles on the road.  Still, it was educational…the [...]

Ok, for those of  you who aren’t into the homeschool scene, this may be a little boring for you.  But…if you were wondering how our first week went…
