**This blog post contains Amazon affiliate links. I’d say that history is one of our “spine” subjects. Each year, we drink in a ton of information and cover lots of ground over many, many centuries. You’ve probably heard it said more times than you can count that dinosaurs roamed the earth millions and millions of…
Yesterday, we closed out our 5th week of homeschool just like that! I can hardly believe it. Its been a memorable whirlwind *almost month and a half of school. Our days are pretty standard this year with grades, 6th, 4th, and 2nd and a crazy two-year-old! We’ve had so much fun studying the Ancients for…
The remnants of slavery’s evils have left an unseemly stench in all our noses. The history of Blacks being shuttered from certain “hued” neighborhoods, restaurants, higher education institutions, and yes, sadly, even churches, is disturbing.

Nowadays, whenever I hear someone staunchly declare, “I’m building my brand”, I quietly shudder while thinking of all the ways in which I “can’t” or “won’t” be able to do the same for myself. Low on resources…check. Not tech savvy enough…double check. Too tired to keep up with the ever changing trends on social media…
It’s crazy to say we began our homeschool journey this time seven autumns ago! And every year has been met with unique challenges and surprises and of course many adventures spear headed by my need to #dothemost!

If you’re like me, whenever embarking upon a new endeavor, you do some pretty thorough recon.

The first two installments of this blog series cover the…
