Glad you could make it.

My name is Andrea LeDew. I live in North Florida. I have studied English, German and the law.

I have four grown kids. I've been a stay-at-home parent for twenty-eight years.

The last ten years, I've been homeschooling my younger two, one with autism. Soon that phase will be over. I look forward to whatever's next.

I like travel, beautiful gardens, milk chocolate and a well-turned phrase.

My blog is made up mostly of rhymes, short stories and essays. I hope you enjoy them and come back often!
