I’d like to thank past me for cooking up the idea to do “butcher block dopamine drops” because it ended up making the biggest difference in homeschooling for us. #homeschool

Anyone who tries to tell me that bangs aren’t for me will be directed to this picture of tiny me. Is #throwbackthursday still a thing?

If anything ever happens to me and someone goes through my photos, they’re going to find so many aerial shots of this table with books and papers on it. #homeschool #homeschooling #secularhomeschool

I took my kids to the library and told them each to choose 2-5 books on a topic they’re interested in learning about. Here’s what they chose. #homeschool #literacy #booksky #reading

My 9yo started off strong with her topic request in 2025, so I wrote a unit. A revolutionary who fights for educational rights? Excellent choice, kid. And how incredibly relevant. #education

I’m really tired of having bathroom troubles. Yes, I meant that in more than one way.

I won’t name any names, but every time I see a certain someone, all I can picture is Ed Bighead from Rocko’s Modern Life.

I’m ramping up to become utterly insufferable, behaving as if I’m everyone’s English teacher. No smooth brains here. #teacher #englishteacher #booksky

I’m just going to leave this right here.

My 9yo: Why do people in power have to use big, fancy words like inauguration?

Me: well, that big, fancy word has been the word for this particular event for a long time. 😅

Mind you, this is the same kid who’s described her hair as voluminous. #homeschool

In an attempt to outsource all of the reading curriculum I was making for my kids, I ended up still giving myself a lot of things to read, laminate, cut, and velcro to prep this curriculum. Good job, me. 😅 #homeschool #secularhomeschool

I don’t know why they call it cat calling. They should call it piha calling because these vociferous birds, aptly named the “screaming piha,” sure do know how to claim your attention. And the hearing in at least one of your ears. Our aquarium field trip was illuminating. #fieldtrip #homeschool

I am still figuring out how to share homeschool layout inspiration on other platforms like this. I don’t know what I’m doing. Please bear with me. #homeschool
