Started homeschooling Katie and Zack, [then] 7 year-old twins, September 2005. Like most HSers, my husband Pete and I are not anti-government, religious fanatics or hermits. We simply want our kids to enjoy learning and we have gained so much more in the process. Homeschooling is at the core of much of our family life now and this is a space where I talk about whatever pops into my head about life in general.

Dad's Passing
For those who were following our trip on the blog, I wanted to update it to say that we ended the trip at the Grand Canyon due to the death of my father, Phil. It was a long road back to NC to be with the family.
He was a great father, grandfather and man. There are so many people who loved him and pulled me aside to tell stories or repeat a joke he had told them.
I miss him.
You can find a link to his obituary via the Legacy web site (I don't post last names here, but it is the first part of my last name).
I'll get back to summing up our trip, which was really wonderful, at some point. Just not ready to do it yet.
