Happy Tax Day and a Fun Announcement
So first of all, *yipppeeeee*… I’m 36. It was good of my parents to have me on Tax Day. Incidentally, it also happens to be Ronald McDonald’s birthday. It’s also the day the Titanic sunk. There’s a connection there somewhere, I just know it. Anyways, I’ve been waiting a long time to be 36. I’m already having a splendid birthday week. All sorts of niceties have happened. I’ll start with my favorite news first… I’m writing articles again. Yep, it’s true. I’ll be featured in the July/Aug edition of a truly fabulous magazine and then again in their Sept/Oct issue. Isn’t that fun? If you are not already a subscriber to Home School Enrichment, I heartily recommend that you become one. You will love it! They are a top notch publication, and I am excited to be a part of things. Ok, my second fun news is that our last pregnant goat, Daisy, finally done had her overdue kids. She had one stark snowy white little girl that I named Posie and a brown and white boy that Coie named Felix. They were both enormous. We’ve doubled our goat herd with the birth of our seven new babies over the last couple months. Four boys and three girls (it should be 4 girls… poor Periwinkle). Ok, thirdly, Coie and I fly to MN in two days. We are going to have *SO* *MUCH* *FUN* Pray that I don’t drop down dead or have an apoplectic fit in the aisle on the plane. I do not fly well. And in other news, Dippy is totally reading books now. Today he read an entire Bob Book from start to finish. I love those cheesy little books. I am so excited about that. What a clever little lad I have. Also, have you guys seen the Virtual Conference that Heart of the Matter is putting together? It looks pretty excellent. I think that’s a convention that I don’t want to miss! Ok, I gotta go pack. I’ll post again when me and Coie get to MN |

Happy B-Day, Jenig! I hope your day is wonderful. But I have a question: who will take care of the kids in your absence?

Happy, Happy!!
Happy Birthday Jenefer, I should be cooking dinner, but thought I'd just pop over for, a birthday wish (what friends are for!)
I can't believe you're 36, you are so young it makes me sick, I can't remember, it just won't stick, I guess I'm old and my brain won't click, (translation, I don't ever remember being that age)
But anyway I'm still your bud, even though your name is mud. I won't get to see your face this time, since you aren't coming here and that's just fine. (NOT REALLY)
Oh, gee I can't rhyme one more thing, I better get offa this crazy um….computer.
This is not part of the poem. Ahem. Congrats on writing again and I can't wait to read your articles in HSE!!!!
Love you, young, beautiful one,
Nancy

A call to prayer!!
Hi Jen,
I have been a lurker on your blog for some time now. I appreciate the transparency in which you share your life and faith. You always make me laugh, and I love it when you get into the Word and really challenge us to dig deep!
I feel compelled to share a link to a blog that another homeschool mama wrote recently. It is very well written and a call to prayer for all Christians who love Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
Here is the link.

Happy Birthday…late!
I was born one day AFTER tax day! Yep, today is my birthday…significantly older than you! 🙁 I'm 45 today!
Hey…I'll be at the MASS Hope convention!! I will definitely come look you up…what fun to actually get to meet some of my blogging pals! I'll be at the Alpha Omega Publications booth. I'm scheduled for 10 conventions this year, but that's the only one that you're going to be at! I'll be in Knoxville though. Do you attend that one?
Well, I'm glad your birthday was good! Have a GREAT time in Minnesota!! You are going to LOVE working at HS conventions…it's a blast!

I just finished copy editing your article for HSE (that being one of my jobs), and I have to tell you that I loved it! Thanks to your blog and your old articles, you've been one of my favourite writers on the homeschool scene for some time. I was very excited to open an article file and find your name in it. Does this mean you'll be writing for us regularly?
Blessings!
