Greetings! Saludos!
My name is Gabrielle, and I live in Upstate NY with my two kids, Elizabeth and Paul. I have a B.S. in Environmental and Forest Biology, and am a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer.
For the last two years I was a stay a home mom – and loved it – but said career is coming to an end as my marriage is falling apart; I’ll admit that it is very sad to me. Within my first year homeschooling Elizabeth, I am suddenly facing separation and divorce. Even so, I have loved homeschooling so much that I am going to give my all to attempt to continue even in a single parent household. If you would like to read more about our homeschooling experience, please check out my other blog, Seed To Seedling.
Why seedlings? I chose the title for this blog based on a power image that I used to use when I was in college. ‘Seedling’ represented to me something that was small yet full of life, had much potential, and was, most importantly, growing. A seedling is a place for little thoughts to grow. Even though I am an adult, I am still growing and merely just a seedling in the long course of time. Seed to Seedling came after that, when I was beginning our homeschooling experience nearly a year ago, and I wanted it to represent a seed growing into a seedling as my daughter is learning and growing as well.
If you would like to contact me, I can be reached at: aplaceforlittlesproutstogrowATgmail.com.
Thanks for stopping by. Paz!

Thank you for following! It’s nice to meet another SAHM (although my son is an adult now) I wish more moms would realize how important it is not to let strangers raise their precious children (like my hummingbird!)

I absolutely LOVE being at home with my children, I feel like it was what I was made for! I have found lots of blogs on WordPress of other SAHMs, so that has been nice.
I found your blog lots of fun, and the hummingbird nest on a hummingbird windchime is sensational!

Thank you so much! I very much admire you for the courage to be proud to say you love being with your children; I’ve been disappointed by how many posts are all about wanting to be anywhere BUT with them. They get a lot of readers and I think it’s very very sad. I’m glad there are more SAHM blogs; if I still had one at home, I’d enjoy them too, and thank you for the nice comment about my hummingbird-it’s the only full nest I have around here lol!

I am so sorry to hear that you are going through a divorce. Thank you for following my blog. As you might have read, I too am experiencing being a single mom and divorce. Hang in there and keep writing for therapy!
