Hi, my name is JoyMarie and I've been a long time lurker but decided to join with the new forum changes. I live in Michigan. My husband and I have 11 children ages 5-25 whom have always been home educated. We also have 2 beautiful granddaughters ages 3 months and almost 2. We have used a lot of different curriculum throughout the years and we are pretty eclectic in style, leaning toward living books/Charlotte Mason/unit studies. I hope to get to know you all.

Welcome!! I'm so glad you are posting and coming out of lurkdom.

Eleven children! What a blessing! My mother is the baby of her family of 11 children!
I wish I had more, honestly. I have three and I think they are wonderful. sigh... I do hold out hope for lots of grandchildren, though.

Welcome, JoyMarie! Wowsers! Eleven blessings! You must be a busy lady! I'm very glad you've come out of lurkdom. :0) Are your grandbabies going to be homeschooled?

Thanks for the welcome and yes I am very blessed! My daughter and son in law do plan on homeschooling my grand kids. I just gave them a bunch of my preschool stuff now that my youngest will be starting K this fall. Last one starting school, Ahh! The end is in sight. Well in about 13 years or so. :lol:
