7th Grade
By Lynn, on August 25th, 2010
Today was the first day of 7th grade for my girl. We had a very productive first day of school! It was all I had hoped for and more. As a tradition, we take yearly pictures for “school pictures” to go in a large frame. At the end we hope to have pictures for grades K through 12.
We started our day with pictures and then moved on to talk about goals for the year, how lessons would be handed out and turned in, and then we did some work. We spent time on the couch reading together. Most everything today we did together, though it won’t be that way every day. I look forward to sharing our lesson plans soon.

About Lynn
I am the mother of four delightful children: a 23-year-old son, a 20-year-old son, a 17-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly 13-year-old daughter. I share an apartment home with my 17-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter. My little home on the internet is called Rose Cottage because of my love for gardening, roses, and all things romantic and Victorian. Welcome.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I do medical transcription from home. My hobbies include making sweet little dolls from clay who are named and have their own stories to tell. I also make old-fashioned brooches. These are for sale in my Etsy shop.
For 13 years continuously, I homeschooled some or all of our four children, but the time came that our homeschool had to be closed. It was the end of a beautiful chapter in my life. I will always be a strong supporter of homeschooling and I will continue to review books and maintain my homeschool website, The Healthy Homeschool. The Players

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884

Dear Lynn,
Michaela looks so sweet in her school picture! Audrey has been dressing everyone up for their School pictures, too (But you probably already guessed that).
May you be blessed to achieve all your goals and more.
Love,
