The life of a family of nerds. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. Spotlight on Homeschooling Series: Ginger. The biggest question that everyone asks when they hear about homeschooling is, "But what about socialization? To parrot a phrase you hear fairly often, I say in response, "This isn't your mother's homeschooling! That said, I'd like to introduce our first Spotlight, Ginger. She is the mother of 4 children and I believe you'll find her reasons for going the homeschooling route very interesting! I envisio...

The life of a family of nerds. Monday, April 4, 2011. Homeschooling Series Comes to an End. I've now posted all the interviews I have from my homeschooling project. Soon, I'll start talking about my own feelings towards homeschooling and what I have learned from these amazing women. In the meantime, any of my readers who are not homeschoolers (or not yet, if you're like me and have young babies), what have you learned? Have you changed your view on homeschooling?

The life of a family of nerds. Monday, January 31, 2011. YOP #5 - Soup. No, really. I am making chicken soup with matzo balls for dinner. There's something about soup that is so.well, perfect. I've rarely met one I didn't like. Except cold soups. I really need it to be at least marginally warm for me to want to eat it. And when there's a day like today when it's grey and overcast all day, soup is the perfect meal. Clearly I am no food photographer. Also, all the parsley floated to the top). I am often as...

The life of a family of nerds. Sunday, February 27, 2011. YOP #8 and #9 - Family. I skipped a YOP last week, mainly because I was in a horrendous mood and couldn't think of anything that made me happy at that moment. But, family is such a big pleasure that I feel they can take up two slots! Family dinners are lovely. Cecilia loves being around other kids so much, especially her cousins. She has such a blast!

The life of a family of nerds. Wednesday, March 2, 2011. Spotlight on Homeschooling Series: Ann. This week's spotlight is really interesting to me, because Ann is a mama in the UK. I was very curious to hear her responses, and how homeschooling is handled in England! 1 How old is/are your kid(s)? 5 years (born in September 05) and 10 months (you know that one! 2 How long have you been homeschooling? Since birth really. Though my oldest was 2 when I decided we would home educate. We are pretty 'autonomous...

The life of a family of nerds. Friday, July 30, 2010. Sometimes a picture says it all. Day 3 - The Trials and Tribulations of Breast Feeding. I think most of you probably know my story, but maybe not all of you, especially my new readers. Fast forward 9 years, and it was summer of 2009. We learned in early August that we were going to have a baby. I was ecstatic- finally, my dream was going to come true! 1 Baby still nurses for nourishment. 2 Mom's milk supply is still stimulated at every feeding. It doe...

The life of a family of nerds. Sunday, March 6, 2011. YOP #10 - The perfection that is Miss Cecilia Ivy. And really, if I am being honest, she is my pleasure every moment of every day. I never knew how much my heart could expand to encompass such a being as my daughter. She is light, she is happiness, she is the embodiment of a joyful spirit in motion. She is perfection. She is an extension of me- the best parts of me in one small package. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). YOP #11 - Dorky cats. Please,...

The life of a family of nerds. Saturday, August 28, 2010. Losing it (a little bit). Yesterday was a rough, rough day. Generally, when Cecilia doesn't want to sleep and wakes up really quickly after going down, I can get get her back down with some snuggles and back pats and shushes. If she doesn't go back down, she's still in a good mood and within an hour is ready to try again. Yesterday, not so much. We cried together. Around 3:30 she finally. This is the first time I've ever really lost my cool as a m...
