    Encouragement for Homeschool Moms

    We all need encouragement along this homeschooling journey, and hearing from other homeschool moms will lift you up as you remember again why you choose to homeschool.

    Including homeschooling book recommendations, tips for easing the stress of your homeschooling day, strategies for connecting with your children, reminders to not force your homeschool into a public school box, and stories from veteran homeschool moms who have walked in your shoes, these posts will encourage you and help you regain your motivation.
