Holidays Already?!
Gosh, doesn’t time fly when your head is in a spin! Easter is here and that means it is time for lots of chocolate and entertaining children every day.

What a Surprise
We could see it coming right? I am not alone with this thought am I? Apparently I must be because even the top dog apparently surrounded by his experts couldn’t. Except I believe he could but rather than hold up his hands and be honest with the public he continues to waffle on sharing theContinueContinue reading “What a Surprise”
Wash, Rinse, Repeat
Well ladies and gentlemen, I hate to say it but today I am rather bored. As it is a Sunday there is no homeschooling to fill up my day and push me to the limit thankfully. My children and I are enjoying time away from each other in different parts of our home, I amContinueContinue reading “Wash, Rinse, Repeat”
