I think I’ve read just about every organization, Feng Shui, and “simplify your life (and stuff)” book out there. While I agree with much of it, I’ve yet to read how to do any of this while kids actually LIVE and LEARN in the home every day. So, I’ve created my own simple “How to” [...]
My younger daughter has been begging me to write this post for over a month now. She’s a huge Amelia Bedelia fan (the rest of us are too) and we talk about Amelia Bedelia’s interesting perspective on life all the time. Whenever my daughter hears a phrase that could be thought of in several different [...]
My kids love 3-D things. They’ve been having a lot of fun with Neave Anaglyph. It’s a website where you can “doodle in 3D”. Put on your 3D glasses and have some fun! Some more fun free online games to check out are: Sand Game (This highly fun game is a perpetual favorite here. We [...]
The little girl’s alarm rang and she immediately slammed her book closed. Her 25 minutes of required reading for the day was up and she wasn’t about to read a second longer – she didn’t care if she was in the middle of a sentence, let alone a chapter. As the alarm rang, another girl [...]
From the cute little girl on the front to the brilliant long lists of ideas (and glorious lists of great picture books), Child of Wonder: Nurturing Creative and Naturally Curious Children (Common Ground Press 2008) by Ginger Carlson, M. A. Ed. had me hooked. This is a book I wish I could have been given [...]
Since starting our Unschooling journey, I’ve often been the most surprised at how much my children’s educations have affected my own personal growth (by philosophy as well as actual day-to-day learning/living). I can quantitatively say that nothing has transformed me more, not even my journey to veganism (which happened because of our unschooling). Exploring all [...]
I’ve been asked how it is that I’ve come to be so confident. Interesting question! This post could have been titled “How to Love Yourself”, as confidence and love go hand-in-hand. A while ago my youngest daughter asked me, “Who do you love most in this world?” I replied, “It’s a three way tie between [...]

I am currently looking for an agent in order to sell my children’s chapter book series. (Details about that in a post later this week.) There are many reasons why I started writing these books. One of the biggest reasons is the lack of good quality parents in children’s books. It seems like Rule 1 [...]
I’ve recently been judging a novel writing contest (which I cannot give out any details about, but, of course, it’s a great contest). I’m finding the judging to be loads of fun. I’m reading books that I normally would not read and that is always of great interest to me. I’ve found new favorite writers [...]
