I agree it is great to hear from other Canadians Kerri! From the way
things sound you certainly have a lively household and for certain you
are always learning together. It sounds marvelous. I am curious - do
you educate the foster children as well? Also because you educate your
own do you have to adhere to the provinces curriculum guidelines in
order to satisfy the "authorities" ideas of "good" education? I am just
and always curious! :) I have thought about fostering children before
but at this time my home is too squishy for that idea.

Nice to see other Canadians here!!

I am in Ontario, Canada. Between Ottawa & Toronto. Except that I am VERY
rural being surrounded by all farmland near a small village. We live in
a
forest (in a house of course :) )

My brother & his wife & 2 children live near Vancouver. They are
"mainstream" though.

foster dd), Jonah(7), Saige & Claire (4, ID twin dds) & baby boy Teagan
