Hi Janelle,
I want to let you know that your podcasts have been so encouraging. I am new to the homeschool scene, and have found it such a relief that I don’t have all the answers, and neither does any other mom out there, but God does. Thank you for what you do. Your time and effort in producing content is well spent.
Thank you for sharing. I’m praying that the Lord would grant me some time to record some new podcast episodes soon. Blessings to you and your family as you homeschool your kids for the glory of God.
Thank you for this podcast episode Janelle, it was just what I needed to hear this afternoon!
