Melissa, thank you for the information. I often wonder how in the world you manage to homeschool, be a wife, and grow a baby while giving us ALL this great information. When I grow up I definitely want to be able to manage my time as you do :)
Thank you again for the great information. Hope you are feeling well and everyone is healthy.
