Welcome to my blog on topics about keeping the home - or attempting to - as a Gen X Mom of four and wife to one. :) This blog is written by me, Lori Seaborg, from the Florida-Alabama Gulf Coast. I'm not the person who is ahead of you in mothering and homemaking knowledge. I'm just the gal right beside you, motivating the 11yo daydreamer, keeping up with the 9yo future homemaker extraordinaire (every mama needs a helper like this one!), teaching the rascally 6-year-old while occupying the 3yo. Let's learn together!
I'm around. We just hit a little bump in life's road, that's all. Our 8 year old jumped on a trampoline -- her first jump, within the first 2 minutes that we arrived at her cousins' house an hour from home -- and the jump sprang her too high and too crooked, so she landed on one arm. The right arm broke at the elbow.
We've logged in 13 hours at emergency rooms, hospitals, waiting rooms, etc. Still many more hours to come!
Today we took her into surgery at the hospital, where they placed two metal pins in her elbow to hold it into place until it heals.
Do you ever sigh and just say, "Whew. It's hard work being a mom!" I did today.
Dear Lori,
There are days I want to hide in my room...for an hour or two. LOL! Hang in there! (Think of it as a field trip and make her write a report on broken bones, trampolines, and emergency rooms! LOL!)
I'm using the Keeping a Nature Journal book too. Isn't it great!
I'm Jessica. It's nice to meet you. I created a forum for classical homeschoolers or those exploring it if you'd like to check it out. It's at www.classicalhomeschooling.forumup.com and my hs blog is at www.homeschoolblogger.com/mamma1420.
I sound busy don't I? I have a book review blog, the one with the cute avatar you're seeing, my hs blog, the hs forum and I have the blog ClassicalMamma which is an online book discussion about the Great Books of the Western World.
See what homeschooling does to you? Come visit sometime.
LOL Jessica
