Women have only been in the workforce at 40% and above since the 1970s. Compulsory education has only existed in all states since 1918. Call me old fashion, but life was simpler, and common sense actually existed when women raised their babies and didn't co-parent with the government. 🤷‍♀️

Love can not be taught in a day. I love my children and would sacrifice my life for them without hesitation. But when Emma asks, "Who do you love more, me or Dad?" my answer is always, "Dad." Without Jordan, she doesn't exist. The love Jordan and I share is one that few experience—truly. The love I have for my mother and father is a love that has sprouted from 32 years of existence, of gratitude and respect. The love for my child is as if my heart is walking around without me. They literally took pieces of me while they grew inside me. That’s a bond I will never share with anyone else.

Love is complicated, messy, frustrating, and maddening. It can make or break your entire existence. But learn this, dear reader: we love because God loved us first.

Time is a funny thing. Last year we had just found out about you. 2 years ago, we had decided to have you. 3 years ago, I didn't think you'd ever exist. 7 years ago, I held your sister just like this while she napped. 11 years ago, I'd just met your dad. 13 years ago, you weren't even on my mind. All that time, all those choices, big life events, and a whole lotta love, and here you are. You are my little boy blue. And we love you.

Is a simmer pot kinda day. Listen, it's cold, and i love it, but with the cold comes the dry. The quickest way to get humidity in your house is boiling some water. Spice it up a little and make it smell good to! I added lavender to our simmer pot today.

My next book recommendations is "The call of the Wild and Free." It's a great read for homeschoolers, people thinking of homeschooling, and even non-homeschoolers. Here is a poem written by the author that is good brain food.

Oh childhood where did you go?
We sped up the process thinking
that's how you'd grow.

Gave up fort building and
climbing trees,
To avoid muddy hands and
skinned-up knees.

Enrolled you in things you
were expected to do.
Not stopping to realize it was
for US more than you.

Remind me, giving up day-dreams
was better for who?

When did we quit dreaming,
or notice or care?
Stop looking at stars or
remember they're there.

We put you on buses and
shipped you away.
To preschools and programs
and preceptors for pay.

Who said the experts know
better than us anyway?

You were made for summers
that go on forever.
Getting lost in good books in
inclement weather.

Making up stories and
writing new songs.
Until long past your bedtime
and the porch light comes on.

No need to rush childhood,
it goes by too fast.
What you need is the time
to make it all last.

You belong out in nature,
staring up at the sky.
Blowing dandelion puffs and
watching them fly.

Turning clouds into shapes
that you want them to be.
Fending off dragons if that's
what you see.

If only there was a way to be
Wild + Free.

We read the great books
but ignore their wisdom.
Go our own way instead of
trusting what's in them.

Childhood is a treasure,
a gift to behold.
I'm sorry to say you've been
traded and sold.

Oh childhood where did you go?
Oh childhood say it ain't so.

We'll bring you back home
if it's the last thing we do.
We'll reclaim the wonder,
that's my promise to you.

-Ainsley Arment

What does view as a disability may actually be a superpower. It's unlikely a child in public school would ever be told or taught that.
