Yes, the Titus 2:1 Conference is just a little over a month away! I was excited last year while waiting for it, but now that I’ve experienced the awesomeness that is this conference, I’m even more excited for this year!
The ladies working hard on getting everything together for 2:1 have asked attendees to write up a little something as a way of introducing themselves to one another. Since I always struggle with writing posts like this, I’m going to use their question prompts:
How long have you been blogging? homeschooling? which do you think is harder?
We have two girls–a 9th grader and a 6th grader–and we’ve homeschooled them since…well, since the beginning! If you are interested in the type of homeschool we have, you can visit Real Homeschool or this Curriculum post.
As for blogging…that’s just been within the past 3 years. And while I love writing, connecting with other bloggers and brands, and having a creative outlet, it doesn’t hold a candle to the significance, responsibility, and satisfaction of teaching my children.
There have been times where I have messed up this balance and it never ends up being a good thing. Now that my girls are older, they are perfectly able (and quite willing) to let me know when I have something out of whack.
If you were a superhero, what would be your homeschool superpower?
Um, how about “able to switch curriculum in a single bound”? Seriously though, most of the time I feel pretty ordinary.
If you could go anywhere, besides the 2:1 Conference, where would be your dream “mom-cation”?
I would absolutely love a trip to Switzerland–in the winter! Because I’m the weird one who could live with a year-round winter, plus I like castles and chalets, and chocolate. I find it terribly ironic that in 2 months we are moving to Texas. Sigh.
What do you hope to get out of the conference?
I am looking forward to spending time with friends, new and not-so-new. What I love about this conference is the combination of great social media and blogging tips and tricks and the homeschool encouragement. Trust me, it doesn’t get any better than that in a conference!
Really? You could live with year-round winter?? You crack me up!
Really and truly!

Oh bummer, Texas, huh? I remember that you were moving but I hadn’t caught where. We have never put TX on our dream sheet because hubby would melt instantly. I will start praying for the move. I also love winter 😉 Great minds and all that,..
I know what you mean about feeling ordinary, though I bet you do indeed have one of those invisible capes (comes with motherhood).
You always make me seriously consider going to a blogging conference. I never have, don’t really know if I would ever have the time and resources, but that would be fun!!
I really appreciate those prayers! It definitely will be an “interesting” change for us.
I think you would love a blogging conference. And this one, with its combo of blogging and homeschooling, is the best! Hopefully someday!

Yeah! I can’t wait for 2:1. I really only like winter photos 🙂
It will be here before we know it! 🙂
I can’t wait to see you again, my friend! Winter, snow… Really? Not me, girl. I guess I’d fit better in TX than you, but I’ll be stuck here in IN. 😉
And I’ll envy the winter you get to have! 🙂
Looking forward to seeing you too!
Looking forward to seeing you, Lisa!
It’ll be fun to get a chance to talk with you again!
It’s hard to believe that you love snow that much 🙂 LOL!! I can’t wait to see you again and hug your neck roomie!!
Yep, that’s me! A hug sounds wonderful!

Looking forward to meeting you at 2:1!

Looking forward to seeing you again! Last year was awesome, wasn’t it? BTW—I keep forgetting to tell you that I just love your blog colors 🙂 Your social media buttons look like a palette I’d like to use on a bedroom, sunroom or fun kitchen!
Thanks Marci! I really like the colors too.
Looking forward to seeing you too!
