Great Deal for Fellow Homeschool Parents!!

I'm a subscriber to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine and I love it!! I have a two year sub and I've purchased TWO of their limited edition bags in the past... Their blue/brown one and the pink/brown one! Eryn uses the pink/brown one to carry the books we borrow from the library. It's nice to have a bag for her to keep the books in while we walk around, when we leave the library, and to keep them in ONE spot when we are at home! When we have to go to the library, we just pick up the pink/brown one and OFF WE GO!!

But it's not just the bag that I love! The magazine is GREAT! It's filled with wonderful information and great resources! I'm so glad that I subbed for TWO years!! With the cost of the sub only being $19.95, that's LESS than $10 a year!! You can't beat that for a great homeschool magazine!!

I want to share with you how YOU can get this great deal, too!  This time, it comes with a BEAUTIFUL cranberry/cream bag!! WOW!! This bag is GORGEOUS!!

Get a free Homeschooling with Heart Cranberries & Cream  colored tote bag from The Old Schoolhouse Magazine! This limited-edition tote bag is a beautiful cranberries & cream flavor--very festive for Fall and the upcoming holidays. This is the same tote as the brown/blue and brown/pink bags you may have received in the past. Made of sturdy canvas, these bags snap on either end to prevent the contents from falling out. Each bag is a rich, cranberry color with warm, creamy accents. They make gorgeous gifts, too! The Cranberries & Cream bags ship in mid-November and will arrive in time for Christmas gift giving or to enjoy yourself during the holiday season.

Home and Happy!

We have been home for a few days now. 

Eryn is doing very well. We have had two plasmapheresis treatments on an outpatient basis at the hospital. So far, so good! She is doing well while on the treatments and not having any problems.

We also just got a phone call from her kidney doctor tonight. He stated that her blood levels are going in the right direction! It seems as though she is keeping more albumin (protein) in her blood and not losing it through her urine and kidney. That is FANTASTIC news! 

We are hoping that this treatment is going to have her going in the right direction and possibly into remission... Keeping all of our limbs crossed!!

We should be receiving Eryn's school stuff from K12 in the next week or so. School here starts on August 9th, so we only have a few weeks left of summer vacation!!! 

So far, we have all good news!!!!!

Great giveaway!!
