Great Deal on Microsoft Surface Pro from the Microsoft Store + $500 Giveaway!
This is a Fashionista Event and a promotional item was provided to me. Hosts for this event are Still Blonde after all these Years and ModlyChic Great Deal on Microsoft Surface Pro from the Microsoft Store + $500 Giveaway! As most of you know I made a huge decision 3 years ago. I decided to stay at home and homeschool my oldest daughter. She was not doing well in school socially and she needed a change. It was a hard time for us and academically she was excelling and was 3 grade levels above her age. But socially she hated school. It was a fight every morning as she would cry and cry for me to stay or to not make her go. I could not take it anymore and I decided to take the plunge. As I did my research the summer before her 4th grade year I soon discovered that to homeschool and run a blog I was most defiantly going to need to purchase a second computer. One for my daughter. Of course we researched SO many different computers and options. I wanted something that would be kid … [Read more...]

My baby girl just turned a year old! I can't believe that this year has already passed..but at the same time I am super happy that she is now at a stage where she is learning and growing and becoming really fun. That is why I have been reading more and more to her. She loves books and I love knowing that I am helping her build a good and strong vocabulary. Especially with books that help her learn about the items around her. On each page of Say & Pray Devotions there is a little part about all the gifts that God has made us. Like our bodies, the animals and more. It is so beautiful to be reminded about the gifts from God that we might take for granted. It has also reminded my older daughter about things that she needs to add to her prayers to Thank God for. To go … [Read more...]

I am so excited for November but at the same time I have been going crazy with re-modeling. I have SO MUCH to do in order to be ready for the new baby.
