About Me

Barbara
I am a Catholic wife (since 1986), mother of six (1990-2004), and grandmother of three. I've "retired" from homeschooling (K-6) and spend my time homemaking, driving the last child here and there, visiting the lovely grandchildren, and sometimes quilting. It's a different kind of busy.
