Sallie Schaaf Borrink

I’m Sallie — wife, mother, just-retired homeschooler, and happy warrior for Christ. Our little family lives a quiet and cozy life of home education, self-employment, and pithy exchanges. I’ve been writing here for 20+ years as a curator of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. I don't peddle trendy aesthetics or ideas, but write about what I'm learning while thinking for myself. And I like to laugh. A lot. Start here. ♥
