This morning my kids were being so cute. They go their jobs and rooms done really fast and decided to do “preschool” for my 2 year old before we started our real school day. They taught him his numbers, letters, shapes, and colors. They had recess with him and taught him to jump rope…
Halloween Ghosts Made from Cheesecloth
To me Halloween means fall, and I love fall! I don’t love Halloween, but I like a lot that comes with it. I love pumpkins, caramel apples, popcorn, dressing in fun costumes, eating candy, going to the farm to pick pumpkins and go through the corn maze, and basically just fall! I guess what I…
I know that my Savior loves me!
Yesterday I woke up late, got to the gym late, got home late and saw that my husband was busy with work, the kids were making a mess in the hall and my oldest, who was supposed to be up and getting ready, was still sleeping and refusing to get up because she was so…
My Home School Curriculum
I have had a few people ask me what Home School Curriculum we are using this year. So here is a run down. I have joined a school called the Washington Online School. If you have heard of K12 {which is an all online school that anyone can do} we use their curriculum, but can pick…
One Book Read Aloud
As a child not only did my mom have us do Quiet Reading Time, but I remember my mom sitting in the hall between the two bedrooms and reading to us from wonderful books. I remember being very excited for that time each night and wouldn’t let my mom let a night go by without…

Mothers Teaching Children in the Home
There were SO many amazing talks this last General Conferencee about teaching our children. One of my favorite talks was a talk given by Elder L. Tom Perrys entitled Mother’s Teaching Children in the Home. Yup! LOVED It! Not because I am a homeschooling mom, but because all moms need to realize that they are…
Quiet Time! Definatly Part of Our Day!
Growing up I remember sitting in my bedroom looking at books for about an hour a day. I loved this time as a child because I knew I was tired, but didn’t necessarily want to go to bed, I could sit in my room and think or day dream or sometimes even fall asleep….
Out Math Curriculum
I am all for making learning fun. I was raised doing Saxon Math and it was very mundane and I felt like I had lots of worksheets to get done! Most math is like that, but a couple of years ago my family found this great Math Curriculum that is so much better especially for younger…
Books, Workbooks, and Library Books!
I am having one of those days. You know those days you get up to get dressed and suddenly hate all of your clothes and wish you had $1000 dollars to go buy new ones, your hair just isn’t working and you need a hair cut, and your kids aren’t getting along! I have had…
