I HAVE BEEN ASKED TO START A TATTING CLASS!!!
I can't even believe it! Another homeschool mom asked me to teach her girls to tat. She said she'd even pay me to do it. She's seeing if anyone else wants to get in on the class or not. Hoping I'm up to the task. I find that I need to work on my delivery or something. I don't always seem to be able to communicate things so that they make sense to other people, even when they make sense to me.

12 YEARS TODAY!!!
Today I have been married to the love of my life, the father of my children, a WONDERFUL father and husband for 12 years! I can't believe it's been that long! I love you Mike!
Just took this picture last week on a trail where we went hiking and saw an old farmhouse from the early 1800s with 5 other families in our homeschool group. There were 10 adults and more than 20 children!

He's Home!!!
My little brother is home on leave from Afghanistan! He's been gone for 8 LONG months, but he's home now for 2 weeks! We're leaving Saturday morning to head to the States to visit him and his family and some other family for a couple of weeks.
We've been pretty busy here tying up the end of the school year. We have some BRAND NEW homeschoolers in the area, they're here from the States. They are brought up here by the opening of the Target stores.
I haven't had a lot of time to work on my tatting, but it's coming with me to the States. I'm thinking of making a special notebook to put my tatting in as I make it and embellishing scrapbook pages with tatting.
We're going to have a REALLY busy school year coming up this fall. We have 4 children. By September they'll be 3 1/2, 6 (in 1st grade), 8 (in 3rd grade) and 11 (in 6th grade). We use a literature based learning system and this means a LOT of work with school. They are learning SO well! We've been trying to get out doing nature walks more often, we've gotten a membership to the Royal Botanical Gardens. We're also going to be spending some time with some other homeschool families going to different events happening in the Niagara region dealing with the bicentennial of the War of 1812. It will be interesting to see this from a Canadian perspective.
Well, I'm off. It's nearly nap time for the younger children and there's things to do to prepare for Saturday.
