*** The 2017-2018 version will be posted by 5/22/2017! A couple of years ago, I finally figured out a way to easily keep track of our homeschool attendance. I’m fortunate to live in a state where there are only a few homeschool requirements, however keeping track of attendance is one of those. For years, I …

For many years, I felt like I wasn’t disciplined enough …
Do your kiddos struggle with going to sleep? Out of my 4 children, I have 3 that struggle almost nightly with trying to go to sleep. As their homeschool mama who has been with them all day, I need them (oh so desperately!) to be in bed by 8:15 or 8:30. My own introverted need …
