The simple beauty of standing on a sandy beach and looking out at the ocean is often smothered by a family's multitude of surf rafts, umbrella's, diaper bags, sun block, sand toys, water bottles, ect.

When I look at this photo of my husband, 5 of our 7 children, and my parents....I am reminded that less is more and simple is always better.  It is better because there is less clutter to take our attention away from true values. 

Through this pregnancy (34 weeks along at this time) we have strived to simplify our homeschool for the glory of Christ.  We have embraced the Charlotte Mason philosophies and have not looked back.  Prayerfully, we have sought our Saviour to lead us in book selections and daily schedules.  Even when decisions seemed too radical, I trusted Him and it had made all the difference.

Please contact me I just found your message on Facebook from a couple of years ago. I didn't know I had an other folder! I feel so bad that I didn't know it was there. I have thought of you often and would love for you to see how much joy he has brought to our lives. We would love to connect with you. Please contact me if you are interested in connecting and again I sincerely apologize I have wanted you to see him for some time now!
