Dwayne Johnson - aka, The Rock - So Sexy!!!

One of my favorite movies starring Dwayne Johnson is The Game Plan where he plays an NFL star who discovers he has an 8 year old daughter and life changes for him drastically. Nice family movie!

    Also...I'm really interested in why you have a list of homeschooling sites? Were you/ Are you homeschooled?

    I've been wanting to homeschool my son (He's only 1 year old now, but when he's of age). Any thoughts?

    Hi Amber ~ Yes...it's going on 14 years since we made the decision to HS our children. They've never gone to school and we plan on it being that way for all of them through High School. If everything lines up for you and your son, go for it. It's not as against the grain as it was 13 years ago. It's much more "appreciated" by the masses but don't let that carry much weight for you. Especially when you're the one that's going to have to decide to keep going when it get's tough, and it will.
    The links that I share are sites I use off and on for my children, some a lot more than others. I like them, my kids like them and that's it. I keep it simple. That's my M.O...keep it simple stupid, it works.
    Read a lot, and chat with other's who have been there and done it. When I first started I held onto the words of a HS mom I met who had been HS for 7 years back then. She told me, "this is not "school" and don't expect it to look that way". It was a gem that didn't become clear to me until 3 years into it but when it did...smooth sailing since then.
    Thanks for the question. It has been on my mind to write an article on "unschooling" soon. This has been our method for the past several years.

Life Lessons: Learning The Rhythms of Life

( Picture via Pinterest ) Those moments when things are supposed to be the way it is but never is. Those moments where things seem like they are but never are. Those moments where certainty is promised but promises uncertainty. Those moments when you know but then again have no freaking idea. Yea, those moments.  Life's moments that are bliss - filled that turns in to a bliss-less-ness. Lately life has been like this for me. Can you relate? Does it seem like in one moment you know what direction you're supposed to be heading and then the next not so sure? Does it seem to have you on a high and then, before you know it, that high becomes a low? And sometimes really, really, low. Life is like this. Ups and downs are the one thing that is constant and sure. In moments like these here's what I do... take a deep breath, inhale it all in, and breathe it all out.  I let it go. There is no need for me to fuss over it because as I...

My Yoga Begins With Striking A Pose - Saddle Pose

"There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart."  When the world got quiet for this young lady what became glaringly clear to me was the dust that accumulated on my yoga mat.  As time passed I felt an aching and emptiness inside of me because I missed my practice. My body had been begging me to open up and roll out my mat - correcting the aches and pains I'd been experiencing. It was calling me to engage in a practice that had once been sacred to me - a practice that I felt at one time I couldn't live without. I was stuck. It wasn't happening, and as a result my body was stuck, stiff, and sore. I felt like I'd gone so far away from my practice that the thought of me pulling out my mat and striking a pose felt untrue. I felt like I couldn't just strike a pose and it mean I'm practicing yoga again.   Sometimes all you need is a little nudge. In '09 when I decided to begin my yoga practice I ...

Blogger {Love} on Pinterest

Are you a blog reader, like me? Do you find yourself getting lost in the world of a blogger and not minding it at all? Do you feel like you know them and in some way have become a part of their lives? I do. All the time. Today I share some of my favorites with you. I've been blogging for the past eight years. Since then I've met some amazing women and men. I love what I do. I love blogging, sharing my life, my perspective on things, and the things I love. I love to read other's blogs who do the same. I learn so much from them and about them that I feel like I know them. I feel like we are good friends. Do you know what I mean? When I follow a blogger's life through their blog and stories I become a part of their lives. Sometimes they know it and sometimes not. But the joy that I get doesn't come from them having to know. Many of these men and women I've never met in person but I feel like we have, and I hope to meet them some day.  Just...
