Homeschooling 2 Year Olds: P is for Painting
This week turned into two due to Ellisa’s first seizure happening on Monday night and Hudson coming home with the croup on Wednesday. What a week! I decided to extend it another week since we hadn’t done much through Thursday. I thought we would do a ton of painting and go to a ton of museums [...]
Ellisa’s First Seizure
Monday May 6, 2013: It’s Monday night and Charles and I are on cloud 9 after an amazing weekend at the beach with the kids and a feeling that life is getting back to normal. I sit down to read Hudson and Ellisa a book on the living room couch after dinner. Mid-way through, I [...]

Two for Tuesday (on Thursday): Beach Fun!
Oh is it Thursday? I almost didn’t know. We’ve had a crazy week (more on that to come) so I’m lucky I’m finding some time to squeeze this in. This was taken last weekend when we somewhat spontaneously decided to hit a Texas beach: Port Aransas. It was a blast and watching the kids see [...]
