Hello from Texas

[Marylyn_TX]

Hi, everyone. :) Jackie told me about this board, and I'm excited to find you all! I've known Jackie for... gosh, 20-something years! So if any of you want to know the REAL story... LOL Just kidding, Jackie! I wouldn't REALLY tell....much. ;)

My husband, Charles, and I have two daughters: Joy is 4.5 and Katerina (Katie) is 2.5. We plan on starting homeschooling Joy next year. Joy is mildly autistic and Katie is speech delayed, so we'll have our own set of challenges. ;) We're starting to choose curriculums now.. Have any of you used Tapestry of Grace?

HEY!!! Welcome, you made it!!! Ladies, Marilyn and her sister were my roommates before I married Carl, and then Charles went and kidnapped her to Texas! (But he's very nice, even if he did steal her away from Ohio!) And Marilyn, every story you tell about ME, I'll tell one about YOU, so you better watch what you say!!!!

Hi, Kris. That's the right Jackie. I moved to Texas almost 8 years ago, but before that we went to the same church and were roommates for a few years until she got married. Jackie IS a wonderful lady!!! :)

Hey, Jackie! LOLOL I'll be good. :D

Welcome Marilyn - You just gave away your age :lol:

[Jackie]

She did? I missed that! Well, I'm the "old lady" around her, and I know she's a good bit younger than I am!

[Marylyn_TX]

LOL Now that you know Jackie is older than I am, should I tell my age?? (BTW, Jackie, Essa had her baby (Rebekah Renae) on March 1st and I'll let her know she is in trouble for not telling you!)

Thank you for the welcome, everyone. :-) I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

[Jackie]

You tell Essa she's in BIG TROUBLE!!! How's she doing? How's Will taking to being a big brother? I'll try to call her and get after herself myself.

Ladies, I was Marilyn's "baby" sister's camp counselor. I'm not dealing very well with the fact that she's married, let alone the mother of two children, LOL!
