About Me
- Alexandra
- A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Respect
From Sister Wendy Beckett's, A Child's Book of Prayer in Art
:
"Sometimes we hear people talking about sin. To sin really means to put what we want before the rights of others. Doing this is wrong because it means that we stay small and mean and concerned with ourselves, and never grow large of heart. "
"Teach me to respect other people and the way they live and the things they believe. Help me never to be cruel. Help me to trust other people and leave them their freedom to be different."
