• My business tagline has been “Making time for things that matter” from the very beginning.
• Homeschooling and caregiving made me aware of the value of time.
• My grandmother’s influence: weekly routines, lists, twice-yearly home plan, etc.
• Tried all the planners  . . . at least once.
• Tried to be my grandmother . . . but not for long.
• Lifelong planning plus four boys turned me into a planning realist.
• Created my own forms, which have become my Peaceful Planning System.
• The newest item is the oldest and longest used — the weekly planner, a printable, customizable, quarterly planner.
• Flexibility, the big picture, knowing what matters, and just do the next thing.
• It all comes back to making time for things that matter and Charlotte Mason’s point that “Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, and a life.”
