It is a quiet evening at home. The children are in bed. And I am embarking on my brave new world - the lare of the homeschooling bloggers! Having come late to the computer era (my computer and I have been together since Christmas), I am still in awe as I explore the universe that has opened up to me. I am now a member of websites that have ongoing discussions about thousands of topics, enjoy the delight of Friday night chats with other Mom's across the country, and have instant access to all sorts of wonderful information. The computer has been a revolution in my homeschooling and mothering. This is my first "blog" entry. So I welcome you to our little corner of the web. We have been homeschooling for seven years if you count homeschooling as beginning at birth. The Rivendell school can trace its roots to the amazing day when our daughter took her first breath in the world and her father and I stared at her perfect set of elfkin ears. I immediately exclaimed that she must have been brought by fairy folk. She still has the most beautiful little ears! My husbands preoccupation with J.R.R. Tolkien led him to dub us "The Rivendell School". I loved those books as well, I see Rivendell as being a peaceful place - a place where a future King was raised away from the evil that sought him. I think it a fit title for a haven for my little prince and princess to come into themselves and experience the wonder of a creation so massive and mysterious that even the most wise among us can only stare in amazement. Almost three years ago, our little prince joined out little elfkin daughter. Now we invite you in to experience our journey in educating our precious children. Life is learning and learning is life. |
