We have accepted our found bird into our family. We have named him Simon. We had his wings clipped so know we can get him out. He is slowly getting used to the the noises and activities in our house. The girls love him and spend a great deal of time talking to him and trying to pet him. He will know sit on my shoulder and hang out with us or hand out on one of his perches around the house. He has a few favorite places to go. He does spend most of the day out of his cage. What a fun addition he has been to our house. It is interesting how he found us as we were deeply involved in our study of birds. I just hope when we study insects, we don't have to adopt them too
Cute! We used to have a cockatiel when I was a little girl. He loved to sit around on our heads just like that. He could fly, too....he'd fly around the house and dive bomb our heads....lol.
I have been so blessed to be able choose the path of homeschooling my two daughters. God has given me many gifts as I endever to raise them up to be Christ like women. We have found along our journey, ways to enrich our lives and share that with others. I hope you enjoy keeping up with the classes I teach locally as well as the happenings in the education of my girls. I hope that you find something helpful here for your family.

We are using this online academy this year. Check it out.
My daughters LOVE this site!
We use this site for much of our school work. Not only does it meet grade level requirements, it is fun! My 4 year old begs to go to her Time 4 Learning page and my 5th grader doesn't complain about doing her work.
These are the most creative stories I have seen yet to help kids finally learn those difficult upper times tables.
These flip charts are like magic! My girls love have the reminder of what to do next. I couldn't believe how great it was!
