About Me

My Photo
Hawaii, United States
I have a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education. I'm happily married to a great guy, we are in our 9th year now and we have three sons. I'm an Usborne Book Consultant, a Home Schooling Mom, I like to cook and get my craft on and ...I'm a Mormon! I have lots of blessings, and lots to be thankful for! We are very eclectic in our homeschooling style, I don't believe there is a one size fits all curriculum, we lean more towards Montessori, Classical and Charlotte Mason, but you'll find us all over the board!
