  1. Thank you for visiting Sea Cottage...and yes, we do call our wee cottage camper 'the pearl' like Jack Sparrow! This is my first year of not homeschooling after 15yrs of homeschooling. A year of transition. I miss it alot, but am thankful I have been able to remain home full time...mothering, cottage-keeping, gardening, praying, and exploring the nature trails with my faithful companion Bella Bleu.
