A snapshot from our life

How I often find my daughter...curled up, in a comfy spot she creates, engrossed in a book.

Amanda: I am a born and raised southern girl who has been blessed to have adventures all over the US. From living on a remote Alaskan island, the high desert of New Mexico, and small town Montana, I have finally found my way back to the South. I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist turned stay at home mom, who spends my days homeschooling a profoundly gifted 13 year old daughter, trying to keep up with a rambunctious and super bright just turned 6 year old, and just overall enjoying this life. I write about our adventures, homeschooling, acceleration, and gifted advocacy.

Cast of Characters

A- 10 yrs old. Her strong personality was evident from the beginning. Incredibly smart, spirited and headstrong to say the least, but also kind, caring, empathetic, and funny as hell. Identified as Profoundly Gifted (PG), she's been reading since she was 2 and is working at least several years ahead in all subjects, which is why we decided to homeschool. We believe having her academic needs met is essential to her emotional health. She plays hard, laughs often, devours books like they were candy, enjoys running free outside, and loves life in general.

W- 3 years old and a bundle of energy. He is sweet and adorable, and looks to be following in his sister's footsteps. He loves all things "school" and surprises us everyday with what he knows.

DH- Dear husband. A wonderful father, loving husband, and my rock.
