347. Removing The Shame When Struggling To Keep Up With Housework With Dana K. White Of A Slob Comes Clean

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint
 
It does not matter the size of your home or the amount of people living within it. The truth is that it is an uphill battle to keep up with everything, especially now that you homeschool your children.
Dana K. White, from A Slob Comes Clean, shares how God worked a struggle in her life to touch the lives of you, I was so concerned about homeschooling high school. It felt like something that was beyond my knowledge set. To be honest, at times it was. But, that didn't mean I couldn't do it.
And the same goes for you!
Whether you currently have a teen or are looking ahead to 1, 3, or 10 years down the road, my goal is that today's conversation equips you to look beyond just schooling, but to really educate your high schooler.
These years of homeschool high school can be some of the most enriching and memory-making years of your child's education. Grab my hand, I promise to show you how you can do it!

We sure do love and feel entitled to our alone time in motherhood, don't we? And listen, I'm right there with you. That was a coveted goal of mine, until...well, you'll get to hear my story.
You may be thinking about homeschooling or feeling like you are missing out on something you should be getting because of homeschool. Both of those camps {and anyone in between} can benefit from the little jolt to the system that this episode will give.
Friend, I'm not holding back in this one because it's important to discuss hard topics like this to gain clarity and freedom in your role as a homeschool mom.

"Hey, Mom! What's for dinner?"
Did you just cringe with that question? I know that I used to.
There are so many decisions that you need to make every single day and what's for dinner...breakfast, lunch, or snacks...isn't something you should need to decide each day.
There is a better way! And that is meal planning. 
Don't let anyone make you feel bad about planning ahead. It actually creates order and predictability in your home. And everyone can thrive better with a routine in place.
Let's be the ones to put an amazing system in place that works with your family!

It's so easy to get caught up in all the things you think you need to do in your homeschool with young children. Often, that is influenced by what school is doing. But, what if the basics are actually the foundation for the success in future academics?

CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome 
 
Every day is full of choices on how to spend your time as a homeschool mom. Some lead to positive outcomes. Some to what appears to be benign results. And others don't add anything good to your days.
After all the years of raising babies up through young adults, I know what it's like to want days that overall are just better. I've tried all the things, but mastering specific times in my day has had the biggest impact on our homeschool days.
You'd think that it was the curriculum or the amazing educational resources that you use that determines a day. Yes, those can add good things. But, let me share what will move the needle forward much faster and help you to accomplish those good homeschool goals.
Grab a pen and paper because I have a few things you'll want to jot down!

You've heard that it's a good idea to teach your homeschool children character. And you're convinced that it will be a good use of your time. But, where do you start?
Today's guest, Marilyn Boyer, from Character Concepts has been helping parents instill character traits and qualities into homeschooled children for years. And she has combined that with her love of history and storytelling to help show your children what character looks like through the lives of historical figures.
Marilyn and her husband began homeschooling before it was technically legal and quickly found that success in academics and relationships came from sharing God and the character He desires to grow in us.  Let's do the same in your family!
