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 everyone! My name is Nikki and I am new to the group. I home school my 4 children in Omaha - Ben (8), Anna(6), Grace(4), and Sophia (newborn). I am still working at finding the teaching style that works best for me but after reading Real Learning, it seems to describe what works for me best. I have gone from unschooling to using some curriculum and Real Learning seems to be that happy medium that I am moving toward.

I am so happy to be a part of this group!!!

I also do some writing and illustrating in my spare time (which is very little, of course). I would love to find out from you "experts" who have a part time business or write on the side, how do you balance both home schooling and that? I can't imagine giving up either one as I love and feel called to both! Any insight would be appreciated.

Can't wait to get to know you!

Nikki
