I’m really enjoying the podcast. I am just getting started planning for high school, so this is just what I need to hear. I think you are doing a really good job!
Thanks SO MUCH, Bethany! Your words are music to my ears, and the positive feedback when I am just starting out is SO encouraging! I REALLY appreciate your taking the time to comment! Lotsa HUGS! :-)
Ann, I’m so looking forward to hearing more. You have a way of delivering important information that puts my mind at ease over the decision to keep homeschooling through graduation when many families we know have opted to phase their kids back into school. That isn’t for us, and you have a unique combination in your podcast of:
1. Valuable information
2. Lighthearted delivery with trustworthy thought and experience behind it
3. Encouragement and community
So thankful for your expertise as an experienced mom of several graduates on our journey. You’re a joy to listen to! Thank you!
Oh, Jennifer, thank you so much for taking the time to write this! I am so encouraged by your words! I confess I’m having tons of fun with this podcast, LOL. And you just listed everything I am trying to accomplish with it, which makes me super happy to know that you are perceiving it that way. I’m SO GLAD that you enjoy it and are finding help! Thanks again! HUGS!
