| Introduction | I’ve had an extraordinary journey for someone who hasn’t really done anything monumental. I have nine children (okay, so I take back the part about not doing anything monumental). Five of our children are married, and providing us with beautiful grandchildren. I am unabashedly Christian. I’m more than half a century old, and have been married to the same man for three decades. I’m a home educator, and passionate about the journey for personal self-education. I like to procrastinate, write, read, talk, walk, think, and laugh. I like to fix a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, but it would be okay with me if we could be like snakes and not eat again until the next year. |
