One of the reasons why I homeschool my kids (not just Eric)…

I have to start new with my blog.

I’ll be deleting everything so I can start again, most themes I try these days, there’s a fatal error that leads it to not show up. So.. I’m getting tired of trying, that I might as well. I also started another blog for Eric, dedicated to his schooling and progress.
So if you see this blog [...]

Eric, my odd one out!

I love this picture, it portrays my beloved son so well. I don’t know how others will see this photo, but for me, it makes me smile.
