Today is Prime Day...

I have been blogging here since 2011. When I began using this space to document our day to day, I had no idea what would happen. I couldn't have imagined nearly half a million hits and the overwhelmingly positive responses I would receive from you. I love the online fellowship that blogging has afforded me. I have even been blessed enough to meet some of you in person. 

When creating this space, I knew from the beginning I didn't want ads to plague my readers. Instead, I hoped it would be a quiet space of respite from this harried life we live. Over the years, I have learned a great deal about home educating and parenting. My heart desires to continue to give freely. Your comments and private messages have given me incentive to continue. 

With that said, after much thought and gnashing of teeth, I have decided to become an Amazon affiliate. I will still give freely as I can, but my links will be attached to a referral code so if you click and make a purchase, my family will receive bounties. 

Today is Amazon Prime Day! I humbly request that you please consider clicking through the linked image above when shopping through Amazon. Any purchases you make, even a free trial, could benefit our family. Any revenue generated from the affiliate links will help to continue content. There is no additional cost to you for using the affiliate links. It simply gives us a little stipend from Amazon. I still vow not to pepper this site with ads in the hope that you will find a quiet place here, in which to grow. 

Thanks so much for your consideration, 

Melissa
