Happy Thursday friends! I hope the start to your Christmas weekend is going great! It's been a little bit since I updated (a couple of months to be exact *smiles*) and I thought today would be the perfect day to update on our move up to New York as I receive so many questions each day about how things are going, how teaching is going, how we are settling in, etc. In many ways it is completely surreal that this week marks seven months since the process really began and a couple of months since we moved in and I started teaching in New York and then as some of you are aware we moved again. In some ways it seems like years because so many things have taken place... time is funny like that- isn't it?
Overall
Overall, I would say that there are many times that I feel like we are taking one day at a time and just taking things each moment as they come and other times where it feels like we are really settling in. I think big changes are like that- just lots of adjustments and giving yourself a LOT of grade.
Teaching
As I shared last month, there were some incredible changes that took place. You can read more HERE.
This book is written for those with a heart and desire to practically meet someone struggling through the confusing and difficult road of a chronic health condition this holiday season. Often those who long to walk the journey of a chronic health condition with their loved ones ask from a sincere place, "How can I really help this holiday?" but feel at a loss of where to start. This book is filled with unique and one-of-a-kind ideas for this holiday season that will be a wonderful "jumping off point" for you to be reaching out to those whom you love that struggle with chronic health issues and their loved ones.
This is the second book in the "Chronic Grace Series"; the first released in April 2018 entitled, "12 Things to Pray" which you can find HERE. You can purchase "12 Things to Do: For Yourself, A Loved One, The Spouse, The Parents, The Children and The Caretakers Dealing with Chronic Health Conditions During the Holiday Season" on Amazon by clicking HERE!
Thank you so much as always for your sweet and continued support of all of my writing friends. You are a gift!
Simple touches of christmas decor have come to the bungalow! This year we are focusing on enjoying the small and simple moments and grabbing onto them. We are adjusting to a lot of different changes and I look forward to sharing more in the weeks ahead, but in the meantime, I hope that you and your loved ones are treasuring the small and precious moments too.

Happy Friday friends! I hope that you are finishing up a great week! Today I am excited to share the top 5 items that y'all have loved the most from the Caravan Sonnet Shoppe for the month of November!
I have been SO excited about all of the additions in this first month of the shoppe being opened and I am I am thrilled that y'all are loving these products! You may be wondering why I am sharing this information and I wanted to share a little background on why:
I am loving using this information to see what products that y'all are liking and buying. I am constantly making new items and creating new things for my classes, but if it is not helpful for another teacher I don't want to waste anyone's time in putting it in the shop. Instead I want to put in the shop things that are helpful, creative and colorful, and most of all educational.
I also want to take a moment to say thank you for every single purchase that has been made in the shop. My goal is to grow this into a full time business and because I am working incredibly hard behind the scenes to make this happen, I want to share the products that others are finding helpful in case you or a teacher/homeschool mama friend could find them useful also. There is a lot that goes into this work and I am LOVING it but I know it wouldn't be possible without YOU. So thank you again for your support of my newest shoppe!
