My hope in creating this page is to provide both veteran & newbie homeschool families encouragement, resources, help and support. On this page it is my goal to share tips and insights I've gleaned from my experiences homeschooling over the past 6 1/2 years & real life struggles & successes in our homeschool journey. It is a bit of a learning curve if you are just jumping into homeschooling and I hope to give you a safe landing place & to help you ease into this phase of your school years.

Happy schooling friends! I am excited to share ideas, adventures, thoughts, curriculum or products we love, ideas & tools that will help make your homeschool journey a successful one :)

So glad to have you here, I look forward to "meeting" you here and having you along for the journey!
