Pictured here are Carrie and I at the recently completed 2009 Midwest Homeschool convention in Cincinnati, Ohio.We focused our attention on the wisdom of Dr. Susan Wise Bauer, author (with her mother, Jessie Wise) of The Well-Trained Mind, the text that we are using to help us provide the classical-model framework for the O'Donnell Family Home School.
I hope to write more about this later . . .
Pictured further below are Carrie and teenage author Victoria Kastens. Victoria is a home-schooled ADD kid who has written several books, one of which we purchased for our budding author-illustrator, Siobhan.
At the very bottom is the "Nature's Workshop" booth. They have tons of cool stuff to help with the science side of things.
In any case, we had a lot of fun, and it was v-e-r-y worthwhile.

I look forward to your feedback. As my children are younger, I hope to learn from your progress. The book suggestion is a good place to start. Have you networked with others in the area or surrounding for curricula and such?
