"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."

As young children, every day was seen as a new adventure. Perhaps today you would be a magical fairy princess that saved her world from certain doom... all with the magic of a pink umbrella! Or perhaps you and a band of friends suddenly were explorers not of just a new world, but a new planet, discovering new plant and animal life, that surprisingly looked a lot like your golden retriever named Freddy. No matter what happened, you always knew that tomorrow brought another adventure for you... and then we grew up.

Today we are adults and responsibilities keep us from becoming princesses and astronauts, but my husband and I came to a decision. These responsibilities only make for more of an adventure... in life!

I am Katie, author of this blog and director of this adventure we call life. I am a stay at home mom to two beautiful daughters, Abigail and Mikaylah. Since January of 2008 I have been homeschooling my oldest daughter, Abigail, and that in itself is an adventure. My youngest daughter will be attending kindergarten in a traditional charter school. My loving husband Chris, assistant director is a self proclaimed computer geek and a wonderful husband and father.

Join us as we continue along on this adventure that we call life!
