Thankful Thursday…and this Thursday I am so grateful for the opportunity to homeschool the last 2 1/2 years. For the 12 years preceding that, our children attended the Christian school at our church. I was also on staff there, as an aide, and we were very involved…and I am VERY…
A Smile Award
Imagine my surprise…to open my very own, new little blog and find an award!! I cannot even remember the last time I was given an award…how sweet it is to have so many new blogging friends. Thank you very much, Heather, for my Smile Award!! (Wow, I even like the…
