About the author

Originally from New Orleans, Louisiana, Carrie De Francisco is now living, loving, and learning in Southern California with her husband, Mike, her two children, Francesca and Joseph, and their introverted dog, Jesse. After twenty plus years of homeschooling her own children (and helping others do the same), she tries not to take herself too seriously. The ministry of motherhood and the call to homeschool have helped Carrie appreciate the gift of laughter (and quiet times with her Bible and favorite cup of coffee). She is definitely saved by Jesus but fueled by coffee! Carrie De Francisco is not only a wife and homeschooling mom with a BS in Elementary Education & MA in Math Education, but she is also a homeschool consultant, speaker, author, educator, former adjunct professor, writing instructor, math tutor, science teacher, homeschool co-op leader, bible study facilitator, and coffee-loving introvert. She is the founder of Coffee With Carrie Website and Blog and hosts the Coffee With Carrie Podcast. Her favorite things to do are to make homemade beignets, experiment in the kitchen, go on nature hikes, play games with her family, and equip and encourage other moms to homeschool one step at a time, one day at a time, and one cup of coffee at a time.
