Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might.

I ran across your blog on 'Or So She Says' and felt that you were writing about my experience with my 13 year old son. I also live in Oklahoma and chose for all the same reasons and more to homeschool my son. This August, we will be beginning our second year and I am still learning about what works best for us. I really look forward to following your blog and wish you all the best.
