Spring Break? Actually just a few days off
We didn't go away this year but we took some time off and we really only had one full day of school last week. All unplanned and I'm getting better with that! We took friends to go ice skating, even though it was a beautiful 70º out! Rock climbing was on the docket for my high schoolers and Friday we took the day away at Hawk Mountain. The views were amazing and we got a good leg workout in on our over 3 mi hike climbing boulders and walking through brush on a "short cut".  We were rewarded with amazing views at the end.  I think we all really needed the break and time away.

Resurrection Day was spent at church in the morning and then it was off to my mom and stepdad's for an early dinner and egg hunt.  Our time ended with Jackson and Callie on the piano leading some worship music.  At home we watched a bunch of The Chosen episodes. What a great weekend!  He is Risen!


It was difficult to get back in the groove this morning with a late start and this week is filled with appointments - Brady is getting his braces off! Awana and baseball games.  And I guess we'll get some school in there too. :)

Spring Break!

Hey there! I’m Allison, a homeschool mom of 4 boys, married to Peter. Three of my boys have graduated, and I still have one in high school. 

We live in a suburb of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Life here is beautiful, a little loud, and full of wrestling matches. We’re definitely a work in progress, and that’s real life.

A little about me and how I got here...

I started at Villanova studying accounting, then ended up working as a computer programmer building websites in the mid-’90s. A few years later, I became a stay-at-home mom and never looked back.

My wellness journey began in my 20s when I struggled with endometriosis. It opened my eyes to how much our daily choices matter. 

I started with food, then slowly learned more about what supports a healthier home and body.

That journey grew into a passion for helping other moms see they don’t need to do it all. They can start small and grow.

When my oldest was little, he once sprayed Shower Power in his mouth. Let’s just say Poison Control and I were a little too familiar back then. 

That moment stuck with me.

Even though I had already started making changes with food, it took me longer to connect the dots between cleaning products, toxins, and everyday wellness.

These days, I’m navigating life as a homeschool mom, college mom, and now a mom whose two oldest boys are married. We also have two girl poodles, and they help balance out all the boy energy around here. 

I love teaching about real life wellness, simple swaps, fitness, and homeschooling. I also love whole foods, exercise, pickleball, and reminding moms they need some alone time before starting the homeschool day. 

You can’t teach from an empty cup. 

Fresh milled flour has also become a big passion of mine. I love baking from freshly ground grain, and I believe a lot of what bothers people is the processing, not just the gluten itself.

I’m passionate about helping homeschool moms 35 and up create a calm, fun, organized home, reduce toxins, and feel more confident about what really matters. You got this. Let’s take it one step at a time.

If that sounds like you, I’d love to help.

Here is my story on YouTube.
