    So often in homeschool, you can get overwhelmed with all of the subjects, that a few of them, including history, can easily slide off the radar. In the back of your mind you really want to study history with your children, but it feels like there isn't enough time.

    Linda Lacour Hobar, the author of The Mystery of History, joins me in this episode to share her enthusiasm of history. But, not only that, Linda has been in the trenches of homeschooling and she wants to show you how you can create a sustainable approach to teaching your children history.

    I'm also excited to share with you how my family used and loved this resource in a way that helped us to understand and appreciate history.

    One of the most common challenges homeschooling families face is what to do with preschoolers while focusing on older children’s lessons.

    Whether you have a toddler who’s still learning how to sit still, or a preschooler who’s ready to explore, there are a few practical strategies to keep them engaged, entertained, and learning—without disrupting your homeschool flow.

    But, there is so much we can learn from and in the years with a little one who is full of enthusiasm that we shouldn't miss out on!

    Life easily gets full and our to-do list gets long. And for the homeschool mom, there is the added pressure to fully educate the children. How in the world can it all get done?

    When I'm feeling overwhelmed, I like to ask myself a few questions. First, it calms me down. But then, it gives me clarity to carry out the calling upon my life.

    Are you feeling overwhelmed too?

    Grab your notebook or journal to take a few notes. At the very least, write down these 5 questions and areas that will help you figure out how to run your days and accomplish what you need to.

    The choices are endless when it comes to how you homeschool and what curriculum you use. And no matter what you do, you'll always be second guessing yourself.

    Throw on top of that, all of the correction, cleaning, cooking, and on and on and you might begin to wonder if you'll ever make it through these years.

    That was me. And I didn't have much of a support system. I sure could have used some solid advice in the middle of the intense homeschooling years.

    Most of homeschool advice you get focuses on five days a week. You know, Monday through Friday. Those are the days and hours we tend to single out as the most important because we're covering our academics.

    But, there are two days a week that we can easily squander away and let our intentionality slip. Sure, we should have times of rest. But rest is not the same as wasting time.

    What if you could step out of a weekend and into Monday feeling accomplished and filled up because you did the best thing possible? I want that for you!

    Listen in to today's episode to help you craft the best weekend for your family.

    Picking out and using curriculum in homeschool is a lot of fun. And it should be! But, there is so much more to these years than the lessons.

    Whether it's pressure from your homeschool state regulations, your own school experience, or voices of family and friends, most of the focus is on creating the modern school system within your home. The methodology and mindset creeps in easily.

    But what if homeschool was about something much more than lessons, multiplication tables, essays, and transcripts? That would mean you are missing out on something huge if you only focus on those.

    Let's bust the notion that homeschool needs to be solely about subjects and what lessons were accomplished this week. Today is your day to begin a reset of your homeschool!

    Welcome to 2025! I hope you are excited about all that this year holds for your family and homeschooling.

    When I first began homeschooling, I thought it was only about the curriculum, lessons, and "teaching." My mind was changed as I began to see what these years with my children at home could be about.

    As we start a brand new fresh New Year, I'm sharing my must-haves for your family this year. I promise that this isn't an overwhelming list that is just one more thing to add to your list.

    Instead, it will transform your outlook and focus this year!

    As a homeschool mom, your to-do list is longer than the average normal person. And your heart is so invested in moving your family forward, all while meeting all their needs.

    Does it take Super Woman to get things done? Not really. But, it does require a plan and outline for the day.

    You've probably heard of time blocks, but those are usually focused on the business world. Could it actually work for a homeschool mom?

    Yes!

    And today, I'm going to lay out the major time blocks for a homeschool mom's day so you can get the lessons all done, meals served, naps taken, chores accomplished, and so on.

    The truth is that someday, your children will be grown and will leave home. It's not a pleasant thought in the midst of the long full days of homeschooling. But, it comes anyway.

    And after all of these years with your homeschool children in your home, what is life like for mom afterwards?

    Over the past few years, I've been in this season of life. My kids are launching, sometimes coming back home for a season, and living their young adult lives no longer under the direction of their mother.

    I'm going to be brutally honest about my experience in today's episode. There were a few hidden realities that no one prepared me for that I want to share with you.

    My hope this that you feel equipped to someday (or now) walk through the season of your children growing up with grace and peace...and a deep satisfaction that the homeschool years were well worth it.

    Gone are the days of homeschooling being a purely academic approach. When you consider what the Bible says about children, current research, observations, and critically looking at where school has failed, you can forge a better path.

    Elisha and Katie Voetberg of Now That We're A Family have been doing just that with their family. Both were raised with a Biblical worldview and are intentional about how they parent their five (almost six!) children.

    Today's episode will inspire you to no longer compartmentalize your home education, but rather to tie in your unique family culture. Elisha and Katie will draw on their own experience to give you ideas and tools for the next steps in adding new life to your family and homeschool.

  • It's the season for expressing thanksgiving and thankfulness. But, are you struggling with what that really looks like for a homeschoom mom and wife?

    Your days are so full with the raising and educating of your children, along with keeping up with the homemaking...and being a wife to your husband. The to-do list is long and never quite accomplished.

    What does God's Word say about thankfulness? And does it apply to this season of your life?

    Let's explore those questions and then make changes that cause your children to see your thankfulness. In turn, the hope is that they internalize and live that way to so that this shift in your life has generational impact.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

  • Among the many questions and fears that homeschool parents worry about, the question of whether their child is behind tops the list.

    Do you find yourself quietly whispering this question? Do you voice it to your husband? Does it just sit there nagging you in the back of your mind? Do you have others asking you this question flat out?

    All of those scenarios don't help settle your anxious heart. But, I surely hope today's episode does.

    Let's sit down and have a little heart to heart, okay? Freedom in your home education will happen once you listen and embrace today's message.
