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.

Hi, I'm Krystin mama to 4 2/3 kids!! We just started homeschooling in March.. My oldest (3rd grade) was in a small Catholic school in Ohio, but we moved in June 09 and can't afford Catholic school where we are now (NoVa). I also have a Kinder girl, a nearly 4yo ds, a nearly 2yo ds..and the tiebreaker is due in Late July.
We are really loving homeschooling! I NEVER thought I'd be the mom that could do this, but the Lord put it on my heart in November, and we prayed until Feb.
It's been wonderful, even on the days it seems not so much! I know that we're doing the right thing!!!
We are a military family, and as we've grown as a family our faith in Jesus and the Church has grown as well!!
Thanks for the welcomes,
God Bless
Krystin

Hi Krystin!

Welcome aboard! (You can tell I'm a fellow military mom, just from that!)

We've found homeschooling to be a great fit with our military lifestyle...I hope that you will find it so, as well.

It's so wonderful that you found us...please ask any question that pops into your head. There are so many wonderful, helpful ladies here.
