Some days it genuinely feels like my ADHD

and my kids’ ADHD have formed a strategic alliance. Not against me — just… not with me either. It’s giving WWE tag‑team energy and the referee left early. #homeschooling #secularhomeschool #blackhomeschoolmom #adhdinwomen #adhdmoms

Pizza Fail 😩😂

I may be qualified to teach a lot of things as a homeschooling parent, but baking sure is NOT one of them. 😭😩 For instance, I can make a spreadsheet from scratch to track attendance, auto-calculate grades, and has a report card that auto pulls final averages and GPA for state compliance. However,

Some days I’m teaching like Ms. Frizzle.

Some days I’m teaching like “Wait… what’s a denominator again?” Both are valid. Both count. You don’t need to know everything to homeschool. You just need to be willing to learn out loud — preferably before the toddler erases the whiteboard. If you’ve ever doubted your ability to teach

Some days I’m a homeschool superhero.

Some days I’m teaching from the floor. Both count. Both are valid. Both are me. Both count. Both are valid. Both are me. Your mental load is part of your homeschool. Not a flaw. Not a failure. Just the truth we don’t say out loud enough. Homeschooling isn’t just about curriculum — i

Multi age learning is a game changer!!

My girls were sitting at the table today, and my oldest decided she was the math boss. She grabbed the cubes and started teaching her little sister like she was running her own tiny tutoring service. No warning. No sign‑up sheet. Just pure big‑sister energy. And the wild part? It worked. One k

Confidence first. Skills later. Vibes always.

She asked for a bass guitar for her 7th birthday so obviously my husband I bought it for her. She plays the bass like a baby giraffe on roller skates.😂 And I’m in the background line‑dancing like she just dropped her debut album. 😅 Because in this house, we follow interests, we try new things, an

Me: buys a simple clock puzzle at Dollar Tree

Also me: “This will be perfect for hands‑on analog time‑recognition skill‑building.” Honestly, the teacher/education jargon should not intimidate you as a homeschool parent 😂. #teachermamaxo #homeschoolmom #homeschoolingforbeginners #dollartreefinds #handsonlearning

✨ Starting homeschool? Buckle up.

When I left public school as an educator, coach, and interventionist, I thought I was prepared. Plot twist: I was gobsmacked. In schools, they hand you curriculum, pacing guides, standards, PD slides from 2008… something. Homeschooling? Record scratch. Suddenly I was the curriculum

I think I'm an "Eclectic Homeschooler"....

People keep talking about homeschool styles. Charlotte Mason, Classical, Waldorf… I swear I thought someone said “Charlie Manson” and I was like, “Wow, homeschooling is getting DARK.” Turns out I’m just an eclectic homeschooler: A little bit of everything, a whole lot of improvising, and a f

I didn’t “fall behind.” My brain simply powered—

down for maintenance without notifying me. Homeschool paused itself and honestly… that’s the kind of boundary modeling I’m proud of. Last week I disappeared because my ADHD, executive dysfunction, and newborn twins formed a union and went on strike. Capacity over chaos, always — even when I forge

MONDAY RESET

Last week was… a lot. We ended up doing an impromptu road trip to Houston for funeral services, and everything turned into this swirl of kids, emotions, family, and me trying to keep the whole operation from falling apart. The kids got time with their people, I got a little best‑friend time, and ho

Funeral trip + kids + travel + emotions = 😲🤯

But we made it work. The kids swam, the twins met family, I ate crawfish like it was therapy, and my best friends welcomed me back OUTSIDE. Homeschooling didn’t stop — it just shifted into “life school” mode. #homeschool #homeschoolmama #teachermamaxo #secularhomeschool #mentalhealt

Homeschooling with boundaries —

is my whole personality now. If it drains me, it’s dismissed. If it supports my peace, it stays. Simple math. #homeschoolmama #homeschooling #mentalhealthcare #homeschool #adhdmom

The Never-Ending Homeschool To-Do List (ADHD Mom)

There’s a special kind of delusion that happens when I sit down to write your homeschool to‑do list. I start with good intentions. I really do. I write things like “math lesson,” “switch laundry,” and “prep lunch.” Reasonable. Manageable. Human. And then, because I'm an ADHD mom with a brain t

I’m not waiting for a curriculum to teach my kids

I’m teaching it myself, and I’m sharing the resources I built along the way. My grandmother was born in 1922, four years before Negro History Week even existed, and her story is the reason I teach my kids the full truth — the brilliance, the struggle, the innovation, the identity, all of it. Most

Real Strategies, Real Structure,and Zero Pressure

Reading lessons in this house look like phonics apps, flip charts, dramatic read-alouds, and me pretending I’m not outnumbered by children who can’t tie their shoes yet. Homeschool reading doesn’t need perfection — just consistency and a sense of humor. Everyday doesn't look the same and that&

Gotta Teach Em ALL.....Pokémon!! 😩

Homeschooling multiple ages is basically a strategic-juggling act where the balls are children and the floor is lava. With checklists, chaos-friendly routines, and a sense of humor we survive the day. #homeschooling #secularhomeschool #blackhomeschoolmom #homeschoolcurriculum #ho

Chile, I refuse to throw away money 💸

Running a full homeschool on a budget while raising five kids should qualify me for a 6 figure salary project management job. Or at least a nap. But here we are, thriving-ish. 😂 #homeschool #homeschoolcurriculum #theteachermamaxoxo #sahmlife #adhdmama
