Here is her desk set-up for letter R. I added some letter fun, featuring the letter R using our Letter Construction set, our alphabet peg set, magnetic R and fishing rod, Rosie’s Red Radish {these are at Costco right now I have heard, for a great price!}, and Letter R soup can.

She loves the Froggy Feeding Fun game.  Personally I think the frogs are a bit too tough for little kids, but that doesn’t seem to hinder her interest at all.  She just gets me to squeeze the frog while she feeds him…Homeschool Tot School-9540

One of our friends had just picked up their chickens and were holding them in the back of their truck while at the picnic, Ladybug LOVED petting one!IMG_9719

She went on the swing all by herself for the first time! Usually she is scared and wants to sit with us!IMG_9856

The bigger kids had a sack race and she desperately wanted to join them!  Daddy helped her hop after they were all done!

    I turned 47 last week and we celebrated tonight wi I turned 47 last week and we celebrated tonight with my parents! Fun evening out to eat sushi together and then to my parent’s house for some fun birthday gifts - mostly cat stuff!!! ❤️😻❤️ It’s not often all three kids can be in the same place like this so we grabbed some pictures! So thankful for my people!
    My little helper. Mabel is the sweetest thing and My little helper. Mabel is the sweetest thing and loves everyone. I heard scratching in my office and looked up to find her like this. 💕
    In case you haven’t figured it out yet, Mabel is In case you haven’t figured it out yet, Mabel is a forever member of our family. ❤️ Yes, we are crazy, but we are OK with that!

Mabel brings so much joy and fits so perfectly in addition to being one of the most beautiful kittens ever. She is technically my daughter’s cat, she matches her short hair calico - Pebbles, and this is the only kitten Pebbles has ever liked and accepted. That’s one of the main reasons she’s staying. Mabel and Pebbles both sleep in Lili’s room and get along fabulously. We never thought Lili would ever be able to get another cat because Pebbles is very possessive of Lili, but then Mabel came along and shocked us all! We knew we had a special kitten when Pebbles liked her!

Mabel gets along with our other cats and our dogs too, and she is super brave, friendly, playful, and snuggly. It was impossible to even imagine her ever leaving our home. Her staying was a family decision, actually led by my husband! We enjoy our kitties so much.
    This is Sarah - my bonus daughter - and her new hu This is Sarah - my bonus daughter - and her new husband Jake. And their new son - Dipper!!! We have had Dipper here an extra long time until they could get down here to pick him up from PA! I am SO excited for them, he is the perfect cat and will be so spoiled! His name may be changed, but for now he’s still Dipper! 

For those of you who have been around awhile, she’s part of the “Philly friends” family who come to visit several times a year. ❤️
    Look what showed up in my Timehop today!! Perfect Look what showed up in my Timehop today!! Perfect timing because All About Learning Press is offering a 10% discount right now- BUYEARLY! Link in profile for details! 

This is virtually unheard of so I recommend taking advantage of this and not only will you save money but you’ll have time to organize too! The link to the post that features this photo is in the profile link too!

    Prep for next year has begun! I am considering try Prep for next year has begun! I am considering trying many new things for my daughter (will be in 8th grade) and before I choose I am trying myself. 

First up is giving @compassclassroom American History a try. I am planning to complete the first few weeks myself to see if I think it’s a good fit for her. Have any of you used this? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Link in profile to the curriculum.

    He is 16!!!!! 🎉🥳🎉 We are busy with so m He is 16!!!!! 🎉🥳🎉 

We are busy with so much right now, most importantly final prep to leave for nationals in Arizona tomorrow! This past weekend he was presented with an award from his coach(with him in this pic) - Athlete of the Year, which is really special. He heads to nationals tomorrow in good shape, feeling confident! 

@kyler_hinson I am so proud of you for so many reasons! Seeing you fight so hard through continual pain the past few years has shown such a strength of character, determination, dedication, and perseverance. I love the man you are becoming and am so thankful to be your mom. 

We have a fun week ahead of us and I’m so excited to be by your side. ❤️ #krashthegymnast

Lives on his own, with an AMAZING job, managing adult-ing beautifully, constantly making me smile when I think of his perseverance, determination, commitment, and ambition. I can’t put into words how proud I am of this man of mine. My son, my baby.

Happy birthday @paxtoroni ❤️ I pray you know how loved you are.
    In case you missed their intro in my stories, I’ In case you missed their intro in my stories, I’d like you to meet the new fluffy trio! Named by my daughter and her friend after characters in the show Gravity Falls. 

Mabel (calico, girl)
Dipper (white/gray, boy)
Soos (tabby, boy)

They are so adorable and came at the perfect time to bring healing after we lost Bruno. ❤️

My guess is about 5-6 weeks old, and they will probably be in foster for about a month, the smallest weighing 1 pound, 3 ounces. 

The look like little dust bunnies flopping around the room, they are so round and fluffy!

    Our youngest child is 13. I’m not sure how that Our youngest child is 13. I’m not sure how that happened. We celebrated Lili today with our best friends from Philadelphia here to visit for the weekend! She opened her presents from us, and loved on our new fluffy foster kittens. Her wish was to foster a fluffy set of kittens and that wish came true yesterday!

So thankful for this awesome kid of mine. She is such a blessing to me and inspires me continually. She is strong, compassionate, brave, unique, artistically talented beyond belief, and I just love being her mom.
    8 weeks old today!!! We are in the final countdown 8 weeks old today!!! We are in the final countdown of our time together! 

Bruno and Camilo are both snuggle bugs and love to curl up on laps, or up by my chin. They both love to play hard and they still love momma’s milkies (especially Bruno). Camilo is a round plump potato weighing 1 lb, 13 ounces. Bruno is a bit skinnier (1 lb, 9.5 ounces) because he’s been having some tummy issues but he’s doing better. They won’t leave me until both are 2 lbs and 100% healthy. I’m assuming a little over a week from now.

    My husband and I went away for the weekend to a cu My husband and I went away for the weekend to a cute little cabin we found on Airbnb and it had SUPER friendly ducks. 🦆 

These ducks brought me so much joy. As I looked back through our photos, the final photo is reflective of me in one of my happy places. I see pure joy on my face and I love the photo. Not because I want my own ducks, but because I truly love animals and being around them makes me smile. This is reflective in my fostering adventure also, it is truly one of my favorite aspects of my life right now.

So thankful for this short time away to do nothing. Well, nothing except hang out with my best friend and some awesome ducks. ❤️
    The season has flown by! He is the NC State Champi The season has flown by! He is the NC State Champion on pommel horse! We head to regionals in a few weeks!

He also had a season high on rings (historically a tough event for him) and placed 3rd! That was fun to watch! 

Thankful for grandparents who were able to be there and teammates that have been there since they were babies many years ago. 🥰

    I can’t even find proper words to share how much I can’t even find proper words to share how much their 3 week birthday means to me. I am finally relaxed and just enjoying these precious boys, rather than constantly worrying. The changes in the past few days are adorable - walking all around, playing, purring, rolling over for belly rubs, climbing on my lap when I’m near!  I just LOVE them!

    Another meet complete! I wasn’t at this one, my Another meet complete! I wasn’t at this one, my wonderful friend (teammate’s mom) took him to Orlando for me since I couldn’t leave the kittens (who are absolutely perfect, praise God!).

He had a solid meet, had fun with his team (who won 1st), and brought home some new medals. 

A few weeks off and then it’s time for the state championship meet! #krashthegymnast
