I’m embarrassed to say how long this book has been sitting on my shelf! I wished I had picked it up sooner, what a blessing! The author says the book is for beginning homeschoolers, but really it is for any stage of the journey. I was so encouraged and inspired along the way. I love hearing from other moms who have completed their journey and share what they have learned, the good, the bad and the ugly. The author is an inspiration to me and I hope to use my time and talents to their fullest now and when my kids are grown like she is. This is one I will definitely loan and reread , especially the chapter on patience! Wow!! So convicting! I need to read that chapter often.

This is a great book for any Christian mother, not just homeschoolers. Some parts are convicting, but their is also reassurance of other's shortcomings and a bit of humor as well.
