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.

During the homeschool years, there is one key linchpin in the whole process of home education that is often overlooked until it's almost too late. Any guess?
It's the homeschool mom! YOU!

Today's guest, Teresa Wiedrick of Homeschool Mama Self-Care has been where you find yourself right now. She is sharing her journey and what she has found to be the way out of the overwhelm that tempts you to quit homeschooling.

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.

One of the top reasons that moms are scared to homeschool is that she doesn't know how to teach her children of different ages and gender. She looks at the school system and it makes sense to separate children, at least by age. But, looking at her every day is a mixture of boys and girls and various ages.
Instead of seeing this as a negative, homeschool moms can actually provide an amazing education based upon the uniqueness of a family.
Do you feel intimated or overwhelmed with homeschooling your boys and girls? I felt the same way, but learned through the years how to optimize this instead of being anxious about it.
Grab a notebook and get ready to make some really great changes to your homeschool!

Every child has been created by God with a uniqueness, but there tends to be a few overarching themes when they are separated by gender.
It can become easy to be frustrated with boy behavior. They tend to puzzle us as homeschoool moms. But, what if instead of seeing what they do as an annoyance, we look at it differently?
Today, I am sharing my top tips that I've learned and employed as a homeschool mom to grow my boys into young men and not just merely survive, but to thrive as their mother.
Find a few moments of quiet or put on those noise canceling headphones and get ready to look at your boys differently after this episode.

It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is adding to the list of subjects to cover in your homeschool. And those are all really great courses of study and enrichment, but maybe they're not right for you.
Simplicity is calling your name. And you'd rather get really good at a few subjects and topics than try to cover everything.
Let's link arms and pare down the list to make it more manageable. And we'll let the cherry on top be the idea of thinking outside the box because not every area of study can fit neatly in a box...or time block.

No one starts something with the intention of quitting. And that especially applies towards parents making decisions about their children. Of course, homeschooling is included in that!
So, if no one plans to quit, why are there numbers of families doing just that? Could your family be next?
Over the past decade, I've observed a few trends and one of them is the when, who, and why behind walking away from homeschooling. I thought that this should be brought to light and openly discussed so that you can combat this possibility on a personal level.
Let's break it down and see what exactly leads to quitting, but then I've got hope for you to stay the course...I promise not to leave you hanging with bad news!

Have you thought about the fact that your children are home with you and a bit of a captive audience at this point? It's true!
And that means you can focus not only on academics, but on building their character too. Which means that to do that, it needs to be a focus for your daily lessons.

Grab a pen and paper and get ready to analyze your goals after this episode!
