Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Hello all,
My name is Heidi. I am a new forum member, but not a new reader. I have been actively reading the posts and getting ideas from many of you for about a year now. I am also actively reading many of your blogs.

I am currently living in Florida and homeschooling my two children (5 1/2 yr. old boy and almost 4 yr. old girl).

I have always been interested in homeschooling, but I am not sure how long I will continue. We are a military family that moves often (and I am often alone)and I will make the choice to homeschool year by year based on the needs of my kids, where we are at as a family, and where we are currently living. My son has special needs (ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder) which will always be a huge factor in my choice as well.

So far, we are having a great year. I love Cay's Catholic Mosaic and have built much of my curriculum around it, trying to incorporate the liturgical year into all we do.

I look forward to continuing to learn with all of you this year as I become an active participant.

Happy New Year!
Heidi

Heidi, welcome aboard!

From one Navy wife to another, it's great to have you here as a forum member.

Your blog looks great, too! I wish I had time to keep mine up the way you do...
