School Year

We have begun our school year. I started with a bunch of curricula and I am ending up doing montessori homeschooling, which has become more effective for my two kids. I have gotten the idea from Elizabeth Foss and we have been enjoying a whole bunch of thematic unit studies. I would call us eclectic homeschoolers. Chloe and Luke have decided to take a bite at drama this year. Our Catholic Homeschooling Group will be starting up again soon with lots of fun activities this year. We are going apple picking today, so I will try to upload a picture later for all of you to look at. Fall officially has started.
I decided to start freelancing writing again. Well this blog has given me so much experience again and lots of practice writing. Before the kids I did it alot for money. My goal is not exactly that this time , it is to help spread the homeschooling movement in a positive light. I'll keep you guys updated on my progress with that.

Governor and Voting

I rarely put up political posts but today I will.  Today my son voted for the first time in our NJ primary for governor.  It has saddened me...
