  18. Ep. 18 | Not Homeschooling When You Thought You Would

    Show notes

    I know what it feels like to have a heart to be with your children twenty-four-seven. I know what it feels like to dream of educating your kids at home. I also know what it feels like to not being the mom you thought you’d be and the grief of not homeschooling when you thought you would. Here I share thoughts to help moms feeling ashamed in this area, offering practical help and biblical hope. As always, it is impossible to be comprehensive, thank you for your charity and patience.
