I’ve done it every year of my life as far back as I can remember, and probably all the years before I can remember too. But that’s not why it’s my favorite. It is my favorite because gathering with family

Shepherd’s Supper: A Christmás Tradition

Traditions are important to me, but I try to think long and hard before adding any new ones, because simplicity is also important.

Our Favorite Homeschool Benefits
