Thanks for the comment on my poem blog! That was the first poem I put up that did not rhyme....I like to write both rhyming and un-rhyming poems. :-) I forget what you call them. :-)

Your WW is so pretty today. I'm off to...unfortunately...Costco. You are riding your bike? Isn't it kind of cold over there right now? Is there snow? The wind is blowing us away today.

P.S. I've asked various folks, but nobody has responded to my question--how do you get the left sidebar on your template?

That is so sweet. I would like to pass it on when I am able to log on again. I'm shut out again today, and this computer won't let me check my email or send emails now either. I want my laptop back! WHAAAH!

Okay, sniff, I'm all right now.

Carol

PS You are the first one I'd want on my list too.

Handsome and I




First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 9, and 7. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north. We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
