..."Who knows what a drug store is?"
12 hands shoot into the air instantly....

The life of a kindergarten teacher. I got quite a kick out of helping in Ellery's class today. If you didn't pick it up they were learning "D." I enjoyed watching Ellery interact.

t h e m a y f i l e s is foremost a family blog, chronicling everyday life. Life including natural, healthy eating (with recipes thrown in at random), home educating (with ideas popping up sporadically), an attempt to homestead on .2 acres (with very meager yields), raising 3 of 4 children with a rare genetic disorder, and lots of highly personal family triumphs and failures. You may also find an eclectic array of musings on politics, exercise, sewing, emergency preparedness, backyard chickens, and religion. This blog isn't a campaign to glorify anyone or anything. Just simply a record.
