After putting together my children’s curriculum and then writing a little of my own (which you can find here if you’re interested), I decided to create a fall syllabus for myself. Now you’ve likely seen the “personal curriculum” videos circulating on Instagram, or you’ve scrolled Pinterest and come across the “create your own syllabus” pins. I found both equally inspiring and decided to try it myself. I am focusing on a seasonal syllabus during this season of my life.

I've been caught up in the sin of pridefully looking down upon the sin of others, whether it be a choice they made or a way they were conducting their life. We've all assumed we would handle a temptation or situation better than our neighbor, until we are toe-to-toe with the temptation and situation ourselves. That spiritual lesson is never fun to learn, but it is so necessary.

Welcome to my article series on faith-based homeschooling! I am so glad you're here! Let's jump right in! Early in your homeschool journey, you’re going to have a stressful day, and that is not only normal but expected! No matter how you choose to educate your children, whether in public, private, or homeschool, there will be stressful days!

Welcome back to my faith-based homeschooling series! When I first began my homeschooling journey six years ago, I was overwhelmed trying to figure out how much time I would need to spend teaching every day to raise intelligent children. I only knew the public school schedule, which consisted of roughly seven hours of instruction. How on earth would I teach my kids for seven hours straight? How much time should I be spending teaching them?

I had never heard of a lifelong learner until I married my husband. After we had our first child, we started discussing possible schooling options for her. During this chat, he uttered the phrase, “lifelong learners,” and I was intrigued. Then he continued talking about raising kids who love to learn and who have fun while doing it.

Welcome to my faith-based homeschool series, where we are going to go through all of the highs and lows of homeschooling! I remember when I first began my homeschooling journey with my oldest child. We signed her up for an online homeschool Christian academy, purchased all the materials she needed, hung colorful laminated educational posters on the walls, and even set up a small desk in her room. Did I mention that I was incredibly nervous and had no clue how to homeschool a

In order to keep my kids' skills sharp over the summer, I wanted to come up with a game of sorts to motivate them to continue learning. I am really big on raising lifelong learners, but that process obviously takes time, and we are certainly in a phase right now where my big kids are not always in love with schoolwork. Hence, the reason why I am making it fun this summer is with my summer learning challenge!

I was tidying up my house this afternoon when this song started playing through my headphones. This one specific part stopped me in my tracks as I folded a mountain-sized pile of laundry. I felt tears well up in my eyes because I have prayed that same prayer many times. Will God abandon me?

Raising children tugs on your heartstrings, doesn't it? My oldest child and I have been experiencing quite a bit of friction over the past few months. She is ten going on twenty, strong-willed, and at the age where I am no longer as cool as I used to be, which is a little bit heartbreaking.

We are closing in on finishing up our 6th year homeschooling, and I want to share what is working well for us. I have a rising 6th grader and a rising 3rd grader for reference. I have homeschooled my children since Kindergarten and have learned so much throughout the past six years.

This school year, I have started to incorporate something new and fun to help my kids become better writers. This works for any grade! Every morning, we do something I've started calling "Writer's Corner," and it's been such a great addition to our day.

It seems that homemaking has been a hot topic on social media for quite some time now, and I have a few thoughts on it myself.
