    Hi, I'm Karen. I've been homeschooling since 1997, I have a 15 yr old ds and a 12 yr old dd.
    We're missionaries overseas, but our homebase is in Central FL.
    I'm looking forward to getting to know you all, getting some great insights, and maybe helping you as well!

    :)

    Deanna, nice to meet you. What a quick response! :angel:

    We've lived in a few places in Central FL, recently we lived in St Pete.

    We're now traveling. Dh is taking a class out west. The kids and I are in PA.

    St. Pete.(gulf side) is soo much prettier (IMO) than east coast. I lived in Tampa and St. Pete. for a while as a child. Nice to meet you.

    Welcome to a wonderful site! I grew up in the Catskill Mts. of NY and we would go to PA as a "Sunday drive". It feels weird that I've now lived down south longer than I lived up there!

    I homeschooled my 11 yr old dd for the first time last year and it was my 2nd year with my now 17 yr old dd. I would love to have a second year with my youngest but my dh was never sold on the idea so it is up in the air. Here you will find newbies right on up to gals who have always homeschooled. I hope you enjoy it here!
