I’m better now!
Hi everyone! I woke up this morning with no zingy pain in my back. YIPPEE!! Thanks so much for your prayers! Yesterday was a long day as well as the younger boys and I went up to Camp Buckhorn at Paris Mountain for our new homeschool co-op’s Back-To-School party. Even after all that - 8 long hours of nonstop fun and kiddo watching (we didn’t leave until after 9pm!) I woke up this morning with no pain in “that spot” in my back. Why? Because you prayed for me, of course!
I am spending the weekend chilling out with Elijah since Greg is taking J.Jay to visit Grandma up in NC and Brittney is working, and a typical busy 17 year old. Greg and J.Jay are going to go on a “serious” hike, so Elijah and I stayed home so as not to hold them back! Pray they don’t get lost in the woods! They are crazy together. If you don’t believe it… watch the youtube “piano bloopers” below.
Okay, Greg video’s J.Jay playing piano more last night, dressed much better than the original. Those videos are below as well. Also, I posted a couple of “sillies” myself. One of Elijah when he was a baby, and another of my. They are all below. Well I gotta go now… I’ve got nowhere to go and a kiddo to play with! Life is good. 
Elijah (now 6) when he was a baby - We were all in the van, I think driving from California to Ohio. This is so cute!
Me at my sister, Patty’s house - being silly!
This is J.Jay and Greg (Dad) goofing off. Greg says in the video, this is good “Aspie” video. They BOTH have Asperger’s - can’t you tell? ha ha ha That’s what makes them both so fun!!! And yes, J.Jay DID give Greg permission to put this on YouTube after all.

Creator of HOMESCHOOLOPOLY® Board Game | Speaker | Author of Homeschooling the Journey is the Reward.
My husband, Greg, and I have been happily married for 25 years and we have homeschooled our kiddos since 1993. I have Multiple Sclerosis, 2 spinal cord injuries, Celiac Disease, ADHD, and more. In addition, three of our four children have major health issues including Celiac Disease, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD, and Scoliosis. My hubby has Asperger's as well. Our two oldest are grown, one is a college graduate currently pursuing his master's, and our only daughter is a college freshman. We only have 2 kiddos left at home - our 13 year old son, and our baby (who is not a baby anymore!) our 7 year old son. My hearts desire is to encourage and minister to homeschool moms. My secondary ministry is to encourage, respect, and help lead kiddos and teenagers to Jesus Christ. I was paralyzed from the waist down in August of 2007 and by the grace of God am recovering wonderfully and can now walk again!! Miracles always abound in our family and God has shown Himself to be amazing and awesome. I use this blog to share from my experiences while trying to always be open and "real" as I deal with life’s difficulties on a daily basis all while still homeschooling, learning, writing, and very much enjoying life! God is my strength and my comfort. Whom shall I fear? Life is good.
