My blog has moved to a new address. You are invited to visit Life Nurturing Education at its new domain.
Homeschooljournal is a marvelous neighborhood. I always enjoy the diversity I find while strolling its familiar paths. I will be back to visit often.
Ron and Andrea, thanks again for hosting me for so long. You are amazing!

There should be witty, insightful words here, but I only have so much time to waste spend on the computer. Those hours were spent exploring corners, contemplating accessories, and arranging furniture at my new internet home. Your invitation for tea will arrive soon. I look forward to showing you around!
While I move cyber boxes and fold forsaken laundry, I’ll share my new celebrity status. As you can see, I got a make-over for the occasion and lost 63 1/2 pounds.

The Heart of the Matter

The March edition of the online homeschool magazine, The Heart of the Matter, has just been published. From my brief glance at the titles, this appears to be the best edition yet.
Carnival of Homeschooling

The Carnival of Homeschooling is full of great articles about homeschooling. Palm Tree Pundit scattered facts about the marvelous month of March throughout the blog entries.
Also, the founders of the Carnival of Homeschooling request your vote. Which images best represent the carnival? Vote for a medium image here and a large image here. This is a simple way to thank the Cates for all their work to make the carnival happen every week.
Headlines from Homeschoolers

Another great source of homeschool happenings is the new Homeschool Community at BlogNetNews.com. This is the place to see the latest headlines from across the blogsphere. Kudos to Dana of Principled Discovery for setting it up.

Last month, Rain blessed me with this purposeful award. I’ve been searching for a new dress for the special occasion, but it’s too much pressure. So, please, excuse my jeans, black t-shirt, and slippers, they suit my comfy, loving purpose better than [insert famous designer name here]. Now, that’s out of the way…
Thank you for this blog badge.

Now, the privilege is mine to pass this emblem to other bloggers worthy of this special prize. Envelope, please.
Jennifer gave me this sweet award for Valentine’s Day. It fits my style perfectly. Daffodils are my favorite flower.

This token of appreciation is for you! Yes, you! Thank you for reading. I am honored that you spend a few moments of your time at my internet home.
Because of their kind comments, I’m mentioning these friendly bloggers: Emily’s 5 Blessings, Remodeling This Life, All Things Hold Together, Untraditional Home, At Shore’s End, and Under His Construction. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I always enjoy the discussion.
For more great blogs, visit the carnivals.
Carnival of Homeschooling is at The Daily Planet.
The Charlotte Mason Carnival is at Simply Charlotte Mason.
