 I got another blog up and running. Don’t expect much, I threw it together during a couple of Fiona’s naps, migrated some posts from this blog over, and added some drafts and quick posts of our coop progress. It’s definitely a work in progress that likely won’t be finished until after our [...]  I haven’t been writing much. Mostly, because I’m not really sure what to write. I started this blog to chronicle my journey as a parent and it evolved into trying to portray our unschooling and consensual lifestyle and how it looks and works for our family.

Or in this case, when your three year old very proudly makes you breakfast all by herself: Add some berries and make a smoothie (but take the bay leaf out first ). Though I would suggest making sure you know exactly what’s in “breakfast” first. The one Meredith made [...]  I’m considering splitting my blog into two parts. One for parenting, family, life learning, etc., and the other for homesteading. People interested in one aren’t necessarily interested in the other. It’s a tough call though, since homesteading is a big part of life learning for us. It is possible to subscribe to just one [...]  We went to a poultry swap today. We didn’t have anything ready for chicks yet, so I’d told Kris I wouldn’t get anything unless there were Silkie chicks, or maybe ducks.
