Thanks for the perspective and encouragement, Jill! : )
Hi Tamara!
Thanks for the great feedback! I am happy we could share some lighthearted reflections of our own journey of homeschooling. We all have good days…and bad days…..just try and laugh everyday!! My family and I are entering into our 12yr homeschooling! And don’t let anyone scare ya off of homeschooling as kids get older….teenagers are a blast!
Jill:-)
I am a fan of your podcasts! It is wonderful to not just read about, but hear the passion you all have for homeschooling. My 11 year old son and I are beginning our first full year with Phoenix, and I really enjoyed hearing your stories about your beginnings in homeschooling. It is intimidating starting out, so very reassuring to hear all these positive stories! Thank you for the smiles. : )
I think the music adds a lot too! Hey, this is a learning experience for all of us . . . we are after all, homeschoolers and believe in lifelong learning, non?
We invite listener feedback! Tell us what you think of our AUDIOCAST!
Ack! I KNOW that anyone with any digital art experience would have done a million times better!!! But I did the best I could :-).
Nice artwork, Jill. Hey everyone, what do you think of her doodle? I love it! Bright, colourful and fun!
