Chasing truth, beauty, goodness, and all things naturally wholistic.

Faith over fear.

Ephesians 2:8-10

 

I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading. My favorite things to do are cultivate my ever-expanding gardens, wrangle chickens, ferment all the things, sourdough bake with einkorn flour, and figure out new ways to use herbal remedies and essential oils. I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.


I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

Solar Eclipsing 2017

Updated Memory Work Box

I’m in the thick of homeschool planning for our third year with Claritas memory work, so it seemed like a perfect time to update the blog’s memory work box post!  This isn’t an idea unique to me.  It is adapted from the Charlotte Mason scripture memorization system.  This method is a fantastic way to systematically...

Claritas Cycle 2 Reading List

This coming school year will be our sixth as a homeschool family!  We’ll be using Claritas Classical Academy’s Cycle 2 memory work as the backbone for most of our studies.  As usual, I’ve put a reading list together to correspond with our history memory work.  Also, I’ve included a list of books to compliment our...

Our Summer 2017 Read Aloud List

It’s easy for the entire summer to pass by without me being intentional about reading to the children, so making a list helps me stay accountable to myself.  I love to read aloud with them, but I can often get caught up in checking off items from my personal to-do list over the summer (especially...
