Hi! I’m Laura, creator of The Whimsical Homemaker. I want to thank you for stopping by! Here you will find info about me and my channel. I share homeschool ideas and inspiration for babies through high school, tips for home life, and weekly THM Menus.
What My Life Looks Like
I am Sean’s wife and a mom to five. I have been homeschooling a long time. I have two in college, two in high school, and one in elementary. I essentially started over, which has been great, really, because I’ve had opportunities to experience a variety of curriculum, learning philosophies, and ways to keep us moving forward at every stage. More importantly, I’ve come to understand the incredible benefits and how possible it is to home educate all the way through high school! Not just possible, but character developing and relationship building. It is beautiful watching the individual your child is come forth!
Also, as a wife and mom, I’m the Keeper of my home, meaning I create routines and effective strategies to keep the house managed. I have moved every two to three years for the last twenty-four years of my marriage and I have had to learn quickly how to create new ways of bringing order to my chaos.
I look forward to the opportunity to encourage you in your homeschool and homemaking journey!
Fun Facts
-I love my coffee! In fact I’d prefer to have my own rather than hit up a chain. I just have it dialed it in and look forward to it.
-I have a wheat allergy and crave bread so I learned sourdough and discovered amazing Einkorn flour. I love making pancakes, pizza, bagels, and bread, all without a stomachache! My kids eat it too!
-I follow a Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle. I provide menus on my website. It has improved my health and I honestly can’t say enough about it.
-My family and I like karaoke, board games, and rewatching movies together.
-I’m an amateur gardener. I grow way too many tomato plants. It’s hard to say no to the variety of amazing plants. The uniqueness in which God has made all things is inspiring.
