Frugal Christmas Shopping

My December column at CatholicMom.com is up, if you'd like to check it out: The Thrifty Homeschooler Goes Christmas Shopping.
As Christians we shy away from the over-commercialism of Christmas, while at the same time desiring to fill our homes with Christmas joy. Just as the Magi brought gifts to the Christ Child, we wish to follow their example in bringing gifts to our loved ones. I have found that it is possible to have a spirit-filled holiday, complete with gift giving, on a budget.

All homeschoolers,

I am single and don't have children, but I intend to homeschool (if God wills it).

I just came across this article about the firing of 4 employees when it was found out that they 'only' had homeschool diplomas.

Help spread the word.

In Jesus, Mary, & Joseph,
