11 alma 11 girls

Alma: Her hair is slowly falling out, framing into a goofy tufted mohawk. She’s positively wreathed with smiles when she can hear her sisters talking.

Quote from the girls this week:

Lux: Is she {imaginary person} allergic to cats?

Joan: No, she’s not.

Lux: Well, I guess that means she can eat them.

Hi! I live in Vermont with my husband Joe and our four daughters: 11, 9, 6, and 3.

Writing on this blog is fluid. In an effort to just keep going I try to publish things before they feel ready or perfect, and I often come back and edit them again, later on. Its primary purpose is a way to engage with others on topics that otherwise swirl about in my mind in a lonely way. I spend most of my time homeschooling and learning alongside the girls. I grew up in Michigan and was homeschooled with my six siblings until I went to high school. I believe in God; our family attends a Mennonite church.

If you sign up for email updates you will get any new posts in your inbox the week they are posted, which is a good fit for an irregular writer like me. Sign up here!
