A Homeschool Mom Needs Books, Too!
As a homeschool mom, you do a lot for your family!
You are running the home, managing the day-to-day tasks, keeping the pantry stocked and the laundry clean.
You might be working on the side, volunteering with your church or in another area, and perhaps you even have your own hobbies and interests.
Many of you have a marriage you want to keep fresh, friendships to foster, and dreams to pursue.
And then, there’s the oh-so-grandious task of homeschooling your children. You know, taking control of their educational future, maybe relearning history yourself, and even trying to care more about parts of speech than you do?
Whether you are looking to start homeschooling today (always a great option in my opinion!), have been doing this a while, or are just looking to learn more about homeschooling in general, book based homeschooling, even for homeschool moms, is always a great choice!
