Yet another fascinating aspect about blogging is, all of the fun blog titles people come up with. Home in the Mitten sounds like the perfect name for a homeschool blog; cozy, close knit, and chaotic. It makes me think of Jan Brett's book, The Mitten, but Julie chose the name because they live in Michigan, the state shaped like a mitten!
The purpose of listing links to direct posts on the Featured Blogger's blog is so that you can get to know that blogger a bit better. They aren't just posts that I find amusing or touching, but something that lets us see into the home of the blogger.
Julie has two daughters that are currently living elsewhere in the big, wide world. Blogging is a great tool for keeping in touch, but so is Skype, which Julie's family uses to stay connected. They also have fun! All it takes is a webcam and a game.
The easiest way to look at someone's day is to take a look at their day book. A Simple Woman's Daybook is a beautiful way to start any day, with a special place for tracking what you are thankful for.
Julie makes it so easy to get to know her! Here is a list of her favorite things.
Now that you know a little about Julie, why don't you leave a comment and introduce yourself?
