They’re Your Kids by Mrs. Sam Sorbo

Having received a Kindle recently for my birthday I was excited to “discover” They’re Your Kids: An Inspirational Journey from Self-Doubter to Home School Advocate by Sam Sorbo in the Kindle store.   Since she is one of the speakers on the schedule of the Teach Them Diligently Conference coming up this year, I thought it […]

Last Man Standing

“Last Man Standing” is being cancelled from ABC, even though the hit comedy is very popular.   While I don’t watch a lot of tv, I do enjoy the show.   Tim Allen was always a favorite of mine growing up.  (Who else remembers Home Improvement?).  His show is one of the few with conservative values.
