We’re hopefully a little less than 3 months out from meeting baby no. 4, and figured it was about time to give our girls a room upgrade. They had been sharing a tiny room (8′ x 9′ … basically a closet) for the past several years, and it worked well for that season. But they […]

We’ve lived in our charming little (1150 square feet) Virginia farmhouse for about 3 1/2 years. When we moved in, it was ready for us; the previous owner had flipped it and painted everything a very tolerable beige and updated the appliances.

Earlier this year I put together some Quick Tips for Homeschool Scheduling and today I’m sharing 5 Things To Do Before You Start Homeschooling. We recently received the news that our public schools in Loudoun County, Virginia would be 100% distance learning this fall. In light of distance/online learning decisions and/or mask mandates, social distancing […]
