Our week started out with rain. Lots and lots of rain, but that was OK. We are big fans of mud puddles! Although, I believe my daughter took jumping in mud puddles to a new level when she belly flopped into one! Gabriel received a new Lego so he spent a whole morning working on it. After that he wanted to climb trees! Of course he climbs trees most days. … [Read more...] about A Week in the Life of an Unschooling Family

My Mother’s Day Weekend in the Desert
I went to Arizona for Mother's Day weekend this year with my Mom. We went to see my sister and my nieces who live in Phoenix and watch my sister graduate from college. No Husband! No Kids! Wait. What?! That's right, it was my first time being away from all of them. Honestly, I wasn't sure I would know how to act. I mean, it's been two years since Jade was born and I have never been away … [Read more...] about My Mother’s Day Weekend in the Desert
Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh My!
On Saturday, we decided to visit an animal sanctuary called Noah's Ark. We felt this would make a great family outing as well as an educational experience for us all. It is located just south of Atlanta, Georgia. I adore the mission behind this non profit sanctuary.
