New to blogging

Since I am new to this whole blog deal I don't come here often to update. Also, as you can see from my tag-line that I don't often have my 'To-It!" therefore it is a hit and miss sort of thing. However, I wanted to put a few words here to cyber-paper or as I saw on another blog one day, 'talk more to myself.' LOL!!!

Summer is over and school is back in session. Home-school that is. I am schooling my 15 yo DS in the principal approach from the FACE curriculum. I love this. It gives me a chance to really effect an individual's point of view, teaching him to be truth based, to think deeper, to feel more intently, and all the while to become the scholar he wants to become. It is a process, not an event. I also home school my almost 4 yo dd. For sure this is miss more than hit. I'm fine with that. I don't force it on her as I have many opportunities during the day to work instruction in to our normal living.

Aside from school starting, so is the business back up after our summer break. I kind of closed my doors for a time while I went home to help family. Mom had surgery and I went home to be sure all was well and help with the recovery. It feels good to get back to scrapping and get Scrap-To-It! back on track again. It is for sure, my therapy in a life where it is mom and school, and then mom and kids, 7 days a week.

I love being a mom, don't get me wrong, however, I am not foolish enough to belive it is enough. When we are enriched, we can enrich others. I find that my work helps my children as well. Teaching my DS to work/run a business, teaching my DD to find her creative place. My DD loves to scrap, btw!

So Septermber is upon us, school and preparpations for events. Colors turn in the woods behind the house and colors turn here on the kitchen table as portfolios come to life.

What does September do for you?
