Do any of you do anything special to wrap up one year and begin the next? I feel a need for closure on 2015 and a fresh start with a new year right now. Not that 2015 was so bad, just that I feel ready to move on. So I’m revisiting a few typical end of December traditions.
We had a nice, simple Christmas this year. I think we are aging out of some of the Christmas craziness of younger families, and I have to say I am quite thankful. …
How is everyone holding up? For many of you the holidays are beginning to reach a crescendo, with Christmas a few days away. Maybe others of you are done for the most part – enjoy watching the rest of us run around like crazy people. 😉
Welcome to the third part in my Highly Sensitive Homeschooler series on surviving the holiday season.
The first two parts can be found here:
Surviving the Holidays Part 1 – The Homeschooling
Surviving the Holidays Part 2 – Know Your Lines
This third part will focus on something I know so many caring, sensitive moms have trouble with – self care.
Welcome to Surviving the Holidays as a Highly Sensitive Homeschooler.
Today I’d like to talk a bit about boundaries and how to keep them with style and grace.

Welcome to my series on homeschooling through the holidays as a highly sensitive homeschooler.
Today is Day 1 – Homeschooling.
It’s no secret that homeschooling can sometimes be difficult for a highly sensitive person under normal conditions. …
Not sure why God in his goodness ordained that the stressful season of holidays should come right after the November Homeschooling Blahs (if you don’t know what that is I’ll have to do a post on it soon)…maybe the holidays are supposed to be soul filling, but as a highly sensitive mom and homeschooler, it’s hard to experience them that way. I usually feel like I put my head down and plow through none-too-gracefully, then when I come up for air it’s all over and I didn’t enjoy it.
Does anyone else feel like they need a vacation after their holiday?
I hope all of you that celebrate had a Happy Easter. What I love most about the Easter season in our religion is the joy, and how it’s encouraged to be celebrated for over a month! Lent always leaves me feeling a little beaten up and sad, and then BANG, Hallelujah! It’s Easter and all is well…
