I'm Portia Phoenix. A mother of one, on a secular homeschooling journey. I have no idea where I'll end up, but I know where I am now. This is a way for me to creatively share while navigating motherhood.
I want to create an existence and learning environment in which my child is free to develop without the terrible influences and values of the present culture. It's Important that I play a major/dominant role in my daughters education.
To be absolutely truthful, I am also greatly motivated to homeschool because of the increasing gun violence and other physical and emotional dangers in schools these days. I find myself absolutely terrified at the very thought of her being in a traditional schooling environment.
While I have the choice, I don't want her to be educated in an environment in which there are shooting drills, and nursery rhymes are composed about how to take cover. I am fortunate enough to be able to make a choice that most others cannot.
I never in a million years thought I would love being a mother, let alone be homeschooling. Although we live modestly, the sacrifice is worth being able to share more life with my baby. I'll ride the wave as long as fate allows.
This is our journey.....From PreK to Beyond.
