You got this, and you can do AMAZING things if you just set your mind to it!” Sometimes, we do need that, but, truth is, this support does not always seem to be there every time we feel down. On days like that, what is a girl to do? A thought… The other day while I was in church, I looked over at the next…

But, at the end of the day, there is really one question that seems to nag you. Do you really have what it takes to homeschool your kids?
