Wordless Wednesday
Written by admin on April 2nd, 2008
I am a 40-something-year-old mother of four delightful children, have been married for 21 years and live in a 1921 farm-style house. I am married to my carpenter husband who is referred to here as the carpenter, papa bear, hubby, and big furry man (he has a full beard).
I am currently homeschooling my second oldest son. He has dyslexia and we have the most fun talking about words and the joys of reading and spelling. Really. Teaching him to read has been one of my greatest joys of my life. He will graduate from our homeschool next year.
I also homeschool my bright and bubbly (and very funny) 5th grade daughter, referred to as either Princess of the Universe or Miss Priss.
My homeschooling style is probably best described as eclectic. I love implementing Charlotte Mason-style ideas into my homeschooling as well as my parenting and I'm a huge fan of Karen Andreola's writings. The heart of our homeschool is Five In A Row.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I'm a book lover, bird lover, gardener and aspiring herbalist. I am a thrift store addict. I do medical transcription from home part-time.
Caddie Woodlawn. With the Wisconsin big woods theme, goes along great with a FIAR study of The Raft.

Hi there! I love your blog…it’s my first time here and I was honored to find myself on your blogroll! How very sweet….I am going to try the Southwest dinner recipe in your previous post…I love simple…anything that has the word simple in the title attracts my attention! I hope you can come by my blog on Friday and leave a comment on that day’s post as I will be having a 200th post giveaway!
Now that I know you are here I will be back!
Blessings,
Robin

Deena, mine is 3/27.
I feel like I know you when I read your blog. I love columbines too. And all flowers. And birds. And just small critters in general.
