Best books for kids, from teenage years down! I am so happy and excited to get to share this "Friend Post" with all of you. I have admired my friend Liz Yeboah, who lives in England, for a long time via Instagram! She inspires me in so many ways. (catch episode 105 on the my Podcast to hear her share family adventure inspiration!) I seriously want to plan a trip to England just to go on some family field trips with the Yeboahs! (and ok, eat some of her cake, too. ๐)

All Q & A: From Homeschooling to the Vaccine, to Parenting A-Z! {Ep.109 with Jonah}
A Q&A episode and last week's giveaway winner announced at the bottom! Aloha Friends!

Homeschool Made Simple {Episode 65 with Jenn Bryant}
Aloha! As we near the end of July and see the next school year looming ahead of us, a lot of you have asked if we can talk more about homeschooling. We have covered different aspects of homeschooling here before (I'll link to those episodes in show notes) but what I really wanted to share in this episode was a word of encouragement -- for anyone who feels like I used to feel when I imagined homeschooling: Completely overwhelmed. I wanted to share what I have learned

Hi guys! If you have ever struggled to motivate your son to read...or write...or sit still in the classroom?! This episode is sure to encourage you. Andrew Pudewa has been a household name in our family for over 10 years as he has been my boys' writing teacher (via video!) The boys call Andrew "a legend" (that's high praise in my teenage boys' world) and they describe him as super- smart, eloquent, quirky, and a really fun teacher. (I think you'll agree!) Andrew
