About a year ago I envisioned a place for ALL homeschool moms to connect, to share ideas, to give advice, get advice and find support from fellow homeschool moms. I have always been a tad saddened that the blogging homeschool community is so segregated and bloggers rarely cross over to other blogging communities. We are missing out on so many amazing homeschool moms that have a wealth of knowledge, experience and "nuggets of wisdom" to share but unless we get out of our comfort zones, we will never have the blessed experience of finding these gems amongst the many blogs out there. Sooooooo the Lord gave me this idea of starting an online Community and Social Network for homeschool moms. I searched and searched and found nothing like what I had in mind. Troy jumped on board and has supported me on this from day one, we have been researching and planning over almost a year now and not until recently did the Lord open the doors and everything just fell into place. There have been some stumbling blocks along the way but all in all the Lord has been faithful in helping us make this dream of a "Homeschool Moms Hub" a reality! So now I introduce to you are work of heart.... The Homeschool Lounge!
The Homeschool Lounge is a FREE online social network community for Homeschool Moms; the very first of its kind! The vision of The Homeschool Lounge is to connect Homeschool Moms from all corners of the web; get advice, give advice, share, learn and laugh with those who truly understand you.
