It's so humbling to see that there really are people reading my little old blog! I am so thankful for those that contact me through my blog, those lost in the throws of starting gluten free eating or starting homeschooling. It's been such a blessing to be able to share with my readers the trek that I have been making. The homeschooled young man is enjoying a nice following on his blog.
