  • So Amelia took this picture of me and I thought it would turn out awful since she was practically in my lap and up my nose 😂 Turns out it might be the best most ME picture of me ever. I don’t mind all the silver or the one eye or lack of smile. I told her she takes all my photos from now on. 💕 Also, mamas hand your kids the camera this weekend. Let them capture YOU for a change. Make sure you’re in those photos. Future you - and future they - will be so glad to have those memories. 💕💕💕

  • First, you should know that I am 100% biased ❤️ Jamie is a woman whom I’ve laughed with, cried with, and who I constantly learn from. We’ve been friends for a decade. One of the first times we ever hung out in person was at a huge conference. In between the seas of people and loud extroverted ice breaker filled sessions, at one point Jaimie was like, “want to go outside?” We walked to her hotel across the street, talking a little bit but mostly just sharing a comfortable, quiet silence. I knew she understood that it wasn’t that I wasn’t enjoying the conference and happy to be there. I just needed a break from the LOUD so I could refocus and regroup. She knew that about me because that’s how she was feeling, too. A simple thing but I knew then that Jamie was one of my people, a fellow introvert. 💕 And now, with this guide for introverted moms, she can be one of your people, too. “It’s time to honor who you are and savor life as an introverted mom.” ❤️ She sent this #introvertedmom survival kit #gifted I’m so proud of her for writing this book! I cannot wait to read it! #introvert #introvertedparent #infp

  • My greatest wish for her is that the confidence and strength she has at age ten only grow deeper her whole life. ❤️ She knows exactly who she is and you can like it or lump it.

  • INTRO #hereisourhomeschool 💕My name is Kara. In a nutshell: bookworm, knitter, INFP, 4w5, Sagittarius, Slytherin, 45yrs old. Married mama. I live in a small town in Indiana. It’s full of artists, good restaurants, and creative people. I believe in fresh starts and self expression. 🧜🏻‍♀️ I’m old enough to know that beauty doesn’t come in a specific size, shape, color, phase of life, price tag, or package. I wish I had learned and believed that sooner.🖤🌺 I *just* started growing my gray out for the 2nd time after a moment of panic and hair dye a month ago. 👩🏻‍🦳👵🏻 #grombre As our kids get older, I don’t share as much about our #homeschool journey as I used to but I still like to be connected to this community. Every six weeks or so I write homeschooling essays for @jamie_cmartin and Simple Homeschool 🏡📖 My kids are finishing up grades 1, 4, 6, and 11. We are winding down our 12th year as a homeschooling family. 🔤🎨🔭🔬 Since it is May I should mention I’m a huge IndyCar fan 🏁We spend every available day this month at the Speedway. If you’re looking for a name to follow during Indy500 coverage, I’ve heard that Colton Herta was homeschooled / road schooled. He’s 19 and just recently became the youngest driver ever to win an IndyCar race. 🏎

  • This cute little cabinet has had a makeover, thanks to @fleck500 🍋🌼📒💛🛵 (swipe to see the before) It was our neighbor’s and then it served as Amelia’s wardrobe for a few years and now it stores games, puzzles, and art supplies in our living room (which is another in progress makeover). Thanks, babe! You did a great job! // #homedecor #yellow #crashbangcolour #cabinetmakeover #frugaldecor #colorfuldecor
