Reading Challenge

I found this book challenge on a Facebook page and challenged myself and my mom to complete it this year. I will post about each book as it is read, be it a wonderful experience or a book I wouldn't recommend.
I am starting off with "a book by a favorite author" :) book review to follow!

Getting back into blogging

This is one of the great moments in our family's life.... Alex learned to eat! Today, I had a visit from my very good friend Kati and her mother Cheryl to learn how to do special things with our blogs.

I was homeschooled from age four through high school, and the homeschool community around where I live generally organizes a graduation ceremony for those graduating that year. My parents had been the head of organizing the ceremonies for many years, and it happend that the year I was to graduate there were no other graduates interested in participating. So, while I really wasn't too terribly excited to have the entire ceremony center around me, I thought it would be good to continue planning the ceremony and leave it open incase there were any late-comers. About a month before the ceremony, a family contacted my parents and asked if we still had...
