I was featured on the Homeschool Classroom!
Recently I discovered a blog that I just love, The Homeschool Classroom.  I stop by each day to read a short blog post that offers me ideas, tips and encouragement for my own homeschool journey.  I was excited to have an article I wrote featured there yesterday.  You may be interested in reading it, a short post about our homeschooling-RVing lifestyle. Even if you don't want to read what I wrote, I think you'll be blessed by stopping by.  There are several wonderful homeschool moms that share on a regular basis. Happy Homeschoolin

Leaving Family Behind
This past week has been one of the most difficult times that I’ve experienced on the road.  The reality of how far we are from our loved ones really sunk in when I got a phone call on Tuesday that managed to turn my day upside down. My grandmother was dying.  I admit after that first sentence I pretty much didn't hear much more of the conversation, just bits and pieces.
