About Me:
I am a homeschooling mother of two - a boy and a girl. I am somewhat of an eclectic homeschooler, with preferences for the Charlotte Mason (CM), Latin Centered Curriculum (LCC) and Thomas Jefferson Education (TJE) methods. I am an irregular on the 4 Real and Well Trained Mind (WTM) forums :) and I run several Yahoo Groups based on these homeschooling philosophies.
I am originally from England, but married to an American man and living in Virginia, in the USA.
I like to read, draw, paint, garden, knit, sew, crochet, spin, tat- I love the old fashioned crafts out there!
About My Blog:
This is my learning notes blog. Basically it is a little run-down of what we do, and some of my homeschooling ideas, tips and activities.
I have also included my journey into self education- feel free to join me!

About the Headers and Drawings:
All of the artwork on here is mine, and copyrighted to me, unless stated otherwise! The header is an amalgam of pictures I have drawn of the kids over the last few months, along with some school supplies ;) I used to have some flowers and such around the blog, but I am trying to keep the pictures more current- or at least themed to what the blog is about!
You'll see a selection of my art on this blog or on my main blog, when I have the time to upload it. Please ask if you wish to use my pictures, I am very accommodating :)
