I've been homeschooling for eight years and have always received the best advice and encouragement from other homeschoolers, rather than a book or lecture.

I believe that God has a specific plan and reason He created each one of us.

If Jesus were playing the game, I don't know what he'd do.

My desire, my passion, was to help moms with practical encouragement.

I'm hosting weekend retreats all over America. It is like a 24-hour slumber party for moms. We laugh, eat, play games, get massages, win prizes, talk about parenting and even cry a bit.

My purpose is to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate moms.

When I did start writing books, I didn't realize it, but the girls that grew up watching the show became moms.
