Did You Know?

My husband, Mike, and I are the co-founders and directors of FUNdamentals Co-Op. Since I teach all day on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I do not have many opportunities each week to fellowship with moms and talk one-on-one with you. Let me introduce myself:

Hi, I'm Carrie De Francisco.

• I'm saved by Jesus and fueled by coffee!

• I have been married for 27 years and homeschooled both of our children from birth to graduation.

• I stand for the flag and kneel in prayer.

• I am a Star Wars and Marvel freak. (Iron Man is my fav! I feel he would appreciate my dry sense of humor.)

• I met my husband within 2 weeks of moving to CA ( my future mother-in-law introduced us).

• I played softball from K-12th grade. (1st base was my home and bunting was my secret weapon!)

• You will always find a coffee mug in my microwave. ( I forget I am heating it up.)

• I still think Disney’s next Broadway musical should be the Emperor’s New Groove (What a hoot that would be!)

• I've never been one to color inside the lines which is probably why I homeschool outside the box.

• It’s never too cold for an iced mocha.

• I can't make a decent batch of brownies but I can make a mean pot of jambalaya and a ton of delicious beignets.

• I watch “When Harry Met Sally” every New Year’s Eve and listen to Harry Connick Jr. every chance I get.

• I am always barefoot & I never wear closed-toe shoes (You can take the girl out of the country but you can’t take the country out of the girl!)

• I’m a closet 80’s rocker chick ( Just a small town girl living in a lonely world…)

I am a daughter of the King. I am a Wife & Mom. A sister in Christ. Coffee Lover. Home Educator. Dog Whisperer. Writer. Speaker. Podcaster.
