Hello blogging world. It’s been a while. Almost 3 years actually. Which is mind blowing. It seems like yesterday when I would sit down and pump out three blogs a week.
And here I am having not spent time writing for myself in three years. I miss it.
Bear with me as I work out all the kinks and remove the rust.
How about we start with a hello again. A re-introduction, if you will.
My name is Sarah. I’m a wife and a mom, a friend and a highly ADHD mind that relies on systems and alarms to keep my life moving.
I currently homeschool my four kids. My oldest is in 5th grade and my youngest is 4. And they are like stair steps every two years. Next month I will have a 5, 7, 9, and 10 year old… and a few months later, my 10 year old will turn 11. A decade of life went faster than I could ever imagine. I know the next decade will do the same.
We spend a lot of our homeschool time reading great books, drawing and painting, gardening, and eating (iykyk).
I currently lead a group of women and their children in a homeschool community group. We aren’t a co-op. We aren’t a charter. We aren’t affiliated with one specific church. Rather, we spend a lot of time together at the park, talking about the Lord, going on field trips and celebrating holidays and birthdays together. We really only miss the Friday of thanksgiving week. 🤪 We sit around talking about what God is teaching us and relishing in these fleeting days!
In this blog, I will mainly focus on homeschooling and motherhood. One might assume that someone writing a blog on those two subjects has perfected the subjects they are writing on. Goodness, that couldn’t be farther from the truth. In fact, I am often quite a mess and have to ask my children for forgiveness often.
However, even though I’m not perfect, I have a lot of things I believe the Lord has put on my heart to share. The last year I have felt the Lord nudging and stirring in me to move forward. In what, I’m not quite sure. But I’m stepping forward and doing what I believe he has gifted me in: encouraging moms in the trenches of motherhood, marriage, and homeschooling.
If you read this far, thank you! I know this wasn’t an exhaustive introduction, but I hope you’ll stick around! 💗
