About Mrs. Murphy

I am a Roman Catholic homeschooling mother of 6 beautiful girls and the wife to an amazing United States Marine. We are currently stationed in El Paso, TX and love it!

I am also SURVIVING Triple Negative Breast Cancer, and plan to post more and more information on natural health and cancer to promote healthy families on this blog!

My hope is that this blog gets passed from mom to mom, homeschool family to teacher, priest to Marine or Soldier or Sailor's Mom to Airman's Dad, as a place to go to find valuable, easy to use, FREE resources. Let me do the research for you, take advantage, and let me know what else I can add to make this place more valuable!

My dream, a Catholic Compound....families working, praying, worshiping, playing, all together. Would you like to join me?

How do I become a Nun?
