A Hard Week

October 19, 2015 by Erin Vincent 2 Comments

  It has been a pretty hard week for us as a family and for me personally. Our regular readers know that our daughter, Jade, has been fighting a virus for a few weeks now. We had gone to Urgent Care last week. We were told we were doing everything right, but to keep an eye on her ears. They feared that she may develop an ear infection. This week we went in to see her … [Read more...] about A Hard Week

Ripley’s Aquarium

October 8, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  While on our holiday in Tennessee my two sisters and I made a trip to Gatlinburg. We were going to Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies with the children. I wasn't sure if our daughter, Jade, was old enough to really enjoy it. When we got there she excitedly showed us the fossil marks in the walkway, I knew she was going to have fun. Fair warning....I took loads of pictures, but aquariums … [Read more...] about Ripley’s Aquarium

A Week in the Life of Unschoolers

October 5, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  Another full week has gone by. We had family visiting for most of it and the children loved having visitors. My sister and brother-in-law came from their farm in Tennessee to hang with us here in Georgia. We loved having them. The kids adored the epic battles at the playground in the rain with Uncle Joe. Just because we had guest didn't mean that our son, Gabriel, … [Read more...] about A Week in the Life of Unschoolers

Our Holiday on the Farm

September 28, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  This week the children and I decided to take a little holiday together. My husband couldn't come because he was needed at work. So the children and I left the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, for a short time, and enjoyed the green pastures and slow pace of my sisters farm. We arrived late in the afternoon and our daughter, Jade, immediately went out and about looking … [Read more...] about Our Holiday on the Farm

A Doctor Who, Paleobiology, and Minecraft Kind of Week

September 14, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  As Unschoolers our children choose what and when they want to learn something. We never force learning because we have found that our children learn better, and are happier when they get to decide what it is they want to learn about.  Their love of learning blossomed when we got out of their way and let them take the lead in their education. This post may contain affiliate links. … [Read more...] about A Doctor Who, Paleobiology, and Minecraft Kind of Week

Through the Lens of My Toddler

August 13, 2015 by Erin Vincent Leave a Comment

  My toddler got a hold on my phone and managed to snap this photo of me. Here is Mom wearing no makeup. She's stressed from a play date gone horribly wrong. She has the beginnings of a headache. She has holes and spills on her shirt and pants. She has diaper cream in her hair. She loses her temper. She questions her abilities as a mother. She has doubts and fears. Yet through the … [Read more...] about Through the Lens of My Toddler

What If I Acted Like My Toddler

April 26, 2015 by Erin Vincent 35 Comments

  Our toddler, Jade, is the most precious little girl I have ever known. I know I'm biased, but I did give birth to her, so.....yeah. Anyway, as precious as this precocious little girl is I have begun to notice certain traits of hers that confound me. I mean, I don't remember my son behaving this way. Ever. Of course it's been five years since he was a toddler, so it is possible that I … [Read more...] about What If I Acted Like My Toddler
