About me

Welcome to TableLifeBlog.  I’m so happy to have you here!  Our table is the heart of our home: it’s where we homeschool, break bread, play games, laugh, cry, and so much more.

I’m Emily, a homeschooling mom of two sharing practical ideas for home education and encouragement to help you make the most of the moments around the table.

While you’re at the table with us, my goal is to equip you with practical learning ideas and encourage you in your day-to-day homeschool life. Most often, that happens through:

As for me, I’ve been homeschooling since 2009, but I’m probably not too different from you. At the end of the day, I’m a parent doing all I can to live intentionally, help my kids fall in love with learning, and foster growth and connection in our home.

Also worth noting, life in the ministry has played and continues to play a big part in our family’s story. That doesn’t come up too often here, but you may see it referenced from time to time.

Outside of homeschooling, I spend a lot of time reading and talking about these things:

  • art
  • music
  • progressive Christianity
  • theology
  • culture
  • parenting
  • nature
  • The Golden Girls
  • eastern North Carolina
  • yoga
  • millennial nostalgia 

No worries if none of those are your thing too… this site exists to support homeschoolers, so that’s all you’ll find here.

Still have questions? If so, feel free to contact me through social media or email.  I’d love to hear from you!
