Hello Again!

Hello out there! I just wanted to stop by and say hi and give a quick update to what's been going on.

As many of you know, some guy was trying to get me to buy my domain name back for way more than I could afford. He is currently trying to sell it for close to 3k!

Anyways, I was so bummed about what happened and even got physically sick over it! I was so upset, but then realized that I just had to "Keep Calm and Carry On! I don't ever want to get that mad and upset again! It's still hard thinking about it, and I haven't even been able to begin to do the damage control that I could be doing. I think God may have something in the works for me though! Changes are coming!

For one thing, I've been really embracing the idea of being a minimalist. Being the busy mother of 6, has me constantly reflecting on how to simplify life and make things easier around here so that we can enjoy family life together. It's been great so far, and I feel so blessed that my children are still young and it's not too late to enjoy and care for them to the fullest!

So what have I been up to since this all happened? We went out of state to visit my mother who thankfully is doing much better! I also had an article published in the latest edition of the Catholic Kids magazine, St. Marys Messenger. It's a pretty cool magazine, you should really check it out! The article I wrote describes our "Hands on Homeschooling".

I also recently designed the DVD Cover and disk art for a docu-interview on renowned poet and literary great Sabine Ulibarri.The production company told me It will be sold on Amazon.com in the coming months.

Finally, I had the pleasure of doing some writing work for non other than the fabulous Catholic Child Catalog! They have so many wonderful products, you are sure to find the perfect gift for any child in your family!

In the coming months, I hope to be able to start anew! I have a new blog in the works, one that will encompass the same Montessori homeschooling tips you've come to enjoy, and so much more! I'm excited to share with you and only wish I had more time to keep up with all of your amazing comments and private emails! You have all been so very sweet and supportive and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Adios for now, I'll pop back in as time allows, and hopefully announce the new blog as it becomes available!
