I Love Waterfalls!
I have lots of roles in life and love them everyone! I am a Christian wife, mother and grandmother. singer, and songwriter, My interests are playing with grandchildren, recording, gardening, cooking, traveling and going to church. Our family enjoys the blessings of God that are received through abiding within his plan for our lives. We know that the only way to truly know God's plan is to stay Spirit filled in every aspect of our daily lives.
We eat according to the kosher diet in the Bible, which is the food God created to be eaten. A healthy lifestyle will enable us to better serve God as well as our brothers and sisters. God is good and wants the best for us in all areas of our lives.
My main purpose on here is to share some of my experiences of 30 years of homeschooling; lessons I've learned, companies I've dealt with and the joys and rewards of it all. Homeschooling really does work, if it is done correctly. We have 3 successful children who never went to public school, but are still able to thrive as successful citizens in the "real world", while holding true to their upbringing. They also hold many roles as businessmen, husbands, fathers, pastors, musicians, mentors and our oldest son has been awarded a full paid scholarship to attend law school. We feel blessed to now have the opportunity to help in homeschooling our grandchildren. So anyway, I'm a strong advocate for homeschooling, and I am very thankful for this site. God bless :D

We don't watch very much tv or many movies. If we do, it's usually the old classics like Andy Griffith, Dick Van Dyke, Little House on the Prairie, Laurel and Hardy movies, Marx Brothers, Roy Rogers, Blondie and Dagwood, and some Shirley Temple movies like Heidi and The Little Princess.
It's a Wonderful Life , The Sound of Music, Sergeant York, The Yearling, Pollyanna, Lady and the Tramp, the March of the Penguins and the Anne of Green Gables Series are a few of my all time favorite movies.
As far as modern TV, I enjoy gardening, cooking, shows about angels and life after death experiences, The Locator, House Hunters, The Duggars, antiques, and especially music shows like Gaithers, and a lot of shows on the RFD channel.

Hey! I just recently wrote the following article and thought you might be interested! King James & The Danger of Our English Bibles: http://wp.me/p56fKZ-17I/. I aim to be respectful, and I certainly appreciate any feedback!

Hey! By the way, since this site has basically stalled, (can't contact any admins to get threads approved, etc.) There's a new forum set up recently by some of the community, where HSAers can talk and be active.
http://homeschoolalumninetwork.freeforums.org
I've started several threads on there, so if you get a chance, check it out and consider joining us!

Thanks mom for the Birthday wish. And for the cake and gifts.
And for the gift of life - most of all! 
I've always thought children should give their parents a gift on their own birthday!

That would be amazing. I'm not the best musician out there, but I'd love to have an instrument room in my house one day so I could lovingly play at everything.
Thank you. They are Smooth Collies. I have been training and showing dogs since I was 14 years old. I love animals and especially love the dogs. I am working on starting my own dog training business, as I see a need for quality, humane training in my area. I'm redoing my website for the collies but my newest puppy has a blog, albeit it needs updating. www.darciecollie.blogspot.com

I always love running into other musical folks on here. My family had a bluegrass gospel band for many years, and to this day I always have to be making some sort of noise on whatever instrument I can get my hands on.
