Why I Started a Blog

I started a blog after my friend Sara got hers up and running. I had thought about it for awhile as I think it is the more appropriate place to put my thoughts on all things family.
If you are looking for a blog about a happy family with no challenges and issues who have it all right, you've come to the wrong spot. However, if you, like me, wish that children came with instructions then this will be a great place to hear and share ideas. We daily encounter; how to teach our children both faith and knowledge, run a business from home, deal with one child with Asperger's Syndrome, live in and constantly fix a house built in 1880 and manage the schedules and housework of a family of 6. Not to mention when my husband is on "shutdown" for work and it all gets even crazier.
Some days there are a lot of tears, but mostly we just enjoy every silly moment with a lot of laughter. We want our home to be a place of love and understanding and to be better people because of it. Our family motto is: God made us all different and that's what makes life a challenge and also what  makes life a lot of fun!
