the last two weeks and five days…

warning. i think there’s 33 total pictures to document. starting off with this knucklehead. valentine addressing. (side note: based on the loot isaac brought home, he was the only kid that didn’t give out a pile of candy. just tattoos.) the valentines day party was postponed, however, when this blizzard happened. the kids raced over […]
denim jumpers and turtlenecks.
yep. it’s been awhile since my last post. and over the last few weeks, we’ve arrived at a huge decision. we are taking isaac out of school to homeschool. in two days. friday will be his last day. and we will start monday. exciting. terrifying. relieving. all at once. here’s how we arrived at this […]
