Washington Post & Adult Coloring

Check out my featured video in the Washington Post! It took me 3.5 hours to complete this newspaper size picture. Adult coloring is the craze, but for some it is becoming an important part of their lifestyle. It is not only fun, but relaxing, and actually is proven to improve our mental and emotional health….

I was Approved!!

Living in the state of Maryland requires that all homeschool families present a student portfolio to show thorough instruction for the school year. Last year, I was so nervous because I didn’t know if all I had compiled for the year would be enough. One of my main “sellers” was my designed photo/yearbook full of…

Managing Homeschooling & Stuff During Busy Weeks!

The past few weeks have been extremely busy. I have had homeschool lessons to teach, small groups to lead, dinner to cook, business planning, birthdays to plan…and the list goes on.  Emotionally I also have a lot going on because the anniversary of my brothers death is approaching and on Monday my little 14 year old…

I Am Who I Am.

The last few days I have been reflecting on my life, my journey and growth. I am in awe at where God has brought me from and the work I have put into being a healthy and whole woman. By no means am I perfect or have I arrived, but one thing is for sure…

How do I Manage? 

   Most days I work sun up to sun down. Teaching, disciplining, planning, cooking, managing, encouraging, praying…and the list goes on!  I love what I do! It strengthens and empowers me to serve and be here for my family. I love being in control of my family schedule and having the freedom to run our…

In April of last year my brother was killed. One moment, one act took him from me. With him, went my drive, my energy and my desire to focus much on my business. I stopped dancing, I stopped everything. While I NEEDED that time to grieve and mourn, eventually this space became my comfort zone, my…
