Hey, Friend!
The question of sleepovers is one that you will inevitably be faced with. And nowadays, it starts younger and younger and the pressure is even greater.
But you homeschool and are used to going against the grain and wonder how your family should approach the question of whether your children participate in sleepovers. Is it okay to say no? Can any good come from saying yes? Is there a middle ground?
Let’s tread into this territory and have an open conversation and no longer bury our heads in the sand. We are responsible for protecting our children and need to make intentional and well-informed decisions. The goal is to help you with these things so that you feel good about your decision.

135. The Best Kept Homeschool Secret: What a Gap Year Is and Why It Needs to Be a Priority For Your Homeschool Graduate

Hey, Friend!
All the time, energy, intention, and focus that you are placing on homeschooling your child and the day eventually comes when they are done with their formal education years.
What then?
Should you just throw them straight into the next phase? Follow what "everyone else is doing" or what they're "supposed to do?"
What if there was another step they could take? One that gives them a buffer and a chance to grow into who God has created them to be?
A gap year is the solution for just that. And I want to share with you all the details so you can begin to prepare for it now.
Grab that pen and paper because you're going to want to write down these tips to draw upon when the time comes.

Hey, Friend!
Would you call yourself an introvert or extrovert? And how about your children?
Figuring out our natural inclinations can help us in our homeschool mom relationships. When we learn to work with each other through the day in and day out of school lessons, chores, and activities, our motherhood journey can have more peace.
However, we have to be careful not to plant our feet in the ground and allow a label to dictate our life. The good news is that I have some insight that will help you find freedom and offer solutions to the difference between you and your children.
Let's dabble a little into the psychology and how this affects our ability to homeschool our children well.
