Lynn has loved collecting books and writing creatively since she was old enough to read! Her life as a homeschooling, nature-loving, work-at-home mother of four children has given her more than ample opportunity to gather things to write about over the last 20 years. These days Lynn is busy keeping records for her current high schooler, gardening, and doing medical transcription from home and, of course, writing.

All of the homeschooling information on this website comes from first-hand life experience as a homeschooling family and from a desire to share lessons learned from both good experiences and hard ones.

Lynn's homeschooling philosophy

"I am very Charlotte Mason, in a classical sort of way. Does that make no sense? A lot of sense? Great! I think so, too! I love a literature-rich, unit study approach to learning; I see the benefits of Latin--I love words and languages; I love learning. I want my children to have those same loves. I believe the key is lighting the fire in them that will be the passion for mastering something! No matter how 'full' I get them of facts, they will never pursue anything with a passion unless it comes from within!" As far as specific curriculum, one of my greatest homeschool finds ever has been Five In A Row.
