Starting again...
I apologize to all my homeschoolblogger friends. I have been the worst blogger!! It seems at the beginning of school I get excited and have lots of exciting plans to blog about...then the year begins, the burn out creeps in, and I don't write if I'm not excited.
I have been terrible. I promise to get better. (of course, in the last year alone we've moved twice from one country to another, and had yet another baby...she is #4 in 6 years time.) so things have been a bit busy as well. Last year was just very challenging all around. I began using this site as places to store important blogs, but not as an everyday blog. I promise to get better. ;)
So, all this to say, I hope to come back. I am not sure what i will blog about, or if it will be of any use or interest to anyone else reading. But my children are getting older, so school is slowly involving more, which gives me more questions to ask...and my youngers gang up on me, which leaves me with more questions about family logistics and juggling! perhaps i will find someone who can relate, perhaps advise, and help with ideas.
so this is my intro to reentering the homeschoolblogging world. And i do hope to be better. I don't know if I can blog everyday, but certainly no more year long gaps. I promise. ;)

About Me

I'm new at this, learning as I teach, teaching as I learn. I am mommy to 4 kiddos: Julia age 7, Megan age 6, Joey age 2, and Charlotte age 10 months. Our homeschool style is Eclectic at best, but gives stability to a family living overseas. I am always open to new ideas and ways to do things and enjoy the encouragement of others doing the same. Boring intro I know, but covers the basics me thinks. ;)
Oh, and the picture above? It was from one of our very first homeschooling days in 2005. We let our two eldest kiddos (then 2 and 3 years old) fingerpaint with shaving cream on the dining table. It was lots of fun, and it left a super shiny table and a nice aloe scent to boot! ;)
