Talking to our girls about their "girls"

About Ali Hooper

Once a School Counselor, now the Editor of Homeschool Bliss, Ali now whittles away the time blogging about family, motherhood, and green living at Blessed Treehouse. Before all else, Ali is mom to a precious baby boy and an ornery yellow lab. She is wife to a patient, small-town kinda guy, and without him, she'd surely be off her rocker. And she prays A LOT, because without the big man upstairs, she'd still be in bed.
