I’ve been homeschooling for eight years and have always received the best advice and encouragement from other homeschoolers, rather than a book or lecture.

My desire, my passion, was to help moms with practical encouragement.

My goal is to help my children discover the unique gifts placed within each of them and let that discovery guide them to their purpose in life.

My job is to pay attention to my children’s genius and allow those leanings to lead them to their future.

My purpose is to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate moms.

Parents usually had a stereotypical view of what homeschooling looks like and they just couldn’t see themselves in that picture.

Families homeschool for different reasons, in unique situations, using a variety of methods.

There’s something about childhood friends that you just can’t replace.

I am addicted to scrapbooking. I document just about everything my kids do or have done, either in photos, journaling or memorabilia.

They sent me to these places to get the weight off. The diets never worked; the diets actually made it worse.

I believe that God has a specific plan and reason He created each one of us.

When I did start writing books, I didn’t realize it, but the girls that grew up watching the show became moms.

I have written about 10 books, all just practical encouragement for moms.

I’m hosting weekend retreats all over America. It is like a 24-hour slumber party for moms. We laugh, eat, play games, get massages, win prizes, talk about parenting and even cry a bit.
