See Jamie Blog is a peek into my life as a homeschooling, homemaking mama in a blended, adoptive family.
This family of mine includes a husband, five kids (plus a daughter-in-law!), and one exceptionally intelligent dog. One child is mine by birth, one by marriage, one adopted as a teen, and two brand new foster-to-adopt kids. {The dog is adopted, too, but she doesn’t know it!}
I do my best thinking with a steaming cup of tea in hand. I write because it’s how I think, how I process thoughts, how I learn from my experiences — and how I relive the best ones.
My blog serves as a repository for my abundance of words (to save my husband’s sanity!), an informal record of our relaxed Charlotte Mason-ish style homeschool, and a place to share my heart as I navigate this journey of motherhood, marriage, and faith. I share about the blessings and challenges that come my way.

A bit more about me:
I adore vintage anything. I’m an Atlanta-area native, and I love that my mom lives around the corner from us. I recently lost my dad to the disease ALS. I’m a chronic furniture re-arranger, and a neat freak who craves organization. Above all, I am merely a clay pot, utterly useless apart from the treasure within. (2 Corinthians 4:7)
