Lately, I have been hearing this phrase from my 4-year-old: “I wish I had [something some other kid has]” or “I wish we could go to [fill in some extravagant vacation trip].” It has been characteristic of her to say things out of the blue and usually, it’s something really cute, like “I have tears because I love you so much.” I would brush off this new phrase of hers as a phase every child…

Learning to balance homeschooling with being a SAHM is hard work. I’ve shared how I mastered it in my blog “Master the Art of Balancing SAHM and Christian Homeschooling Roles.” Maybe there is a subject that you have a hard time teaching. Or perhaps you just…
