Is anyone else excited for spring?! We're planning to read Solimar The Sword of the Monarchs and learn about butterflies, and finally use the butterfly garden kit we've had since 2020! 🦋🐛 #homeschool #hearthandstory #secularhomeschool #butterflies

Stocked up on some affordable local dry goods... Ugh does this feel like 2020 all over again, but even worse. 😵‍💫 #resist #preparedness

Prepping some #homeschool curriculum.... I haven't read Alice in Wonderland but this dictation quote struck me as really relevant right now. 🫣 Just one reason why we read literature... #blossomandroot

Over centuries, we have gradually been isolated from meaningful, shared, creative experiences that help us build trustworthy relationships and make sense of the world. The antidote to this current extinction burst of patriarchy, capitalism and religion is singing, drawing, and writing together.

When your homeschool kid wants to start a homeschool club and is piling up books for unit studies... 🫣😍

Claiming that we're morally superior to all other countries while banning teaching of actual history is quite a thing. If we want people to think we live up to our ideals, we should live up to our ideals, not pretend that we always have.

Here are 2 collections of picture books that share diverse stories of immigration and refugee experiences. They are a beautiful reminder that immigrants are simply people who have come here for a multitude of reasons, bringing with them so much that enriches our communities and this country.

Thrift store score... only $2.99 very good used hardcover copy of a book we'll be reading this year for #torchlightcurriculum level 1. #thrifting #usedbooks #goodwillfind #booksky

Today's #libraryhaul... one was reserved for a curriculum read aloud for #torchlightcurriculum, the rest just seemed relevant or interesting. I love our small town library. 💝📚

It is hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help...If I say I am Christian, but do these things, then I am a hypocrite." #PopeFrancis #GoldenRule #WelcomeTheStranger

Recent happy discovery.... Started using an app called Road Club and I've earned $5 each week just by driving safely. Was able to use $10 gift card from it to buy 3 books off Thriftbooks. I'm doing a no buy year but that doesn't count, in my book 🫣😆

Needless to say it's a scary time in our country, and why I'm building our library of books to teach our daughter the true American history so she can learn and understand what's actually happened... Without knowledge history will keep repeating itself 😩 #buildyourlibrary #homeschool #secular

Deactivated meta accounts.... Finally was the right time. Never used Twitter. Guess we'll see how this goes!
