Run Play Explore At RunPlayExplore, we help homeschooling families create their own unit studies! Join our group! I’m Kaitlyn, a former teacher and homeschool mom of three.

I’m married to Andrew, and we live in beautiful South Carolina. I overuse emojis and exclamation points! Our three kiddos were born in 2015, 2018, and 2020. The oldest two live with Type 1 Diabetes. If you hang out here long enough, you’ll learn more about it than you ever wanted to know! We live for our weekly field trips and are always up for new adventures, the most recent one we tackled was te

nt camping with three little kids! I blog about our life as a homeschooling family, especially our unit studies, which are the foundation of our homeschool. And I create learning resources for our family, and share them with the hope they will make other families’ homeschooling journeys just a little bit easier. Thanks so much for visiting!

Spunky. Lively. The most impeccable comedic timing. World’s best snuggler.

Half a decade with our girl and I’m so thankful that she’s ours!

Whether she’s belting Hannah Montana, showing us her latest dance, or planting her feet and standing her ground, she is tenacious and adorable. Happiest of birthdays to our girl! We love you.

What a whirlwind week we’ve had! Homeschool, our own “cave paintings”, a stop at the zoo on the way to Pickens, SC to see South Carolina’s only publicly accessible ancient petroglyphs, (you have to see our reel highlighting that awesome spot!). Got home late Saturday and spent Sunday celebrating our soon-to-be 5 year old and practicing new (supported) sitting skills!

One of the things I’ll always remember most about my Grandaddy is that he liked to have fun, and he loved having fun with us. He was sort of legendary, in my mind, for buying and selling big toys-sell his fishing boat, buy a pontoon boat. Sell the pontoon boat, buy a camper, put it at the lake, and then the four wheeler needed to be exchanged for a jet ski!

And he always joked about spending his girls’ inheritance while he was still around to watch them enjoy it. And we REALLY did enjoy it!

But when I think about the inheritance he really left us, it’s something far more valuable than anything money can buy. The true inheritance that he leaves behind is a life that was devoted to Jesus. He taught his 4 girls to love and obey the Lord, they taught the 8 of us, and now we are teaching our children. As a parent now myself, I can see that what he did was no easy feat. Balancing grace and love with teaching obedience and discipline is a challenge, but a challenge he fulfilled very well.

The qualities of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and self control, he embodied every single one of them. And sometimes, self-control especially, like when certain grandchildren ate a bunch of pringles in his bed and left behind the crumbs to prove it. Or when we slept over the night before church and talked and giggled well past midnight while he tried to sleep.

My Grandaddy was a lover of the simple things in life. Fishing on a quiet lake, strumming a guitar with his people around him singing, and good food. But he had a deep love - for Jesus and for us - that was far from simple. And that’s the best inheritance we could ever ask for.

Our little ladybug is 7. She picked her party to match her Halloween costume. Girlfriend loves a theme. She also loves art, Hannah Montana, competition, and is a fierce and formidable opponent at anything she does. It is an adventure being her mama! 🐞
