HS Memoirs All ABout me


HSBA classmate assignments has changed to homeschool memoirs and today's memoir:

Just write up something about you, your family, and your home. How long you’ve been homeschooling and why you decided to homeschool. It doesn’t have to be anything lengthy at all, but we’d love to hear it!

I've known Yeshua for a long time but only in the past couple years embraced my Hebrew Roots.
I've been married 8 years as of 5.20.08
I've been a mom since 7.31.01
I home educate my son currently with Beyond by Heart of Dakota but first love is AmbleSide.
I have 2 cats and currently dwell in an apartment. We've gotten approved for a mortgage yet finding time to look at houses is a bit of a challenge -- YAY!
I'd like to be a better home-maker and learn to sustain off grid

I've known I was meant to be a homeschooling mom since before I even graduated highschool. I just remind myself that if my son was meant to be schooled otherwise, he would have been born to a different family, instead he was born into ours with me the mom who was called to homeschool. We're both here for a reason.

We're on week seven of our fourth year of home education.


this is from last summer. My guys and I

It's great to meet you! Do you know Bobbie? She is a wonderful blogger on HSB who is messianic Jew. She has wonderful posts. I THINK her blog is:

But I could be wrong.

Hi!
It's so nice to meet you and hear a bit of your story. I heard a speaker at a women's retreat last year that made a comment that we were created for this time and this place. Your post reminded me of that.

Blessings to you...
