I am super excited to have been chosen to be a team member on the new group of independent reviewers for The Old Schoolhouse. Look for reviews of many homeschool products!
As such, I am going to have to stop doing reviews of books that have nothing to do with homeschool.
I will continue to review homeschool products from self-publishers and vendors in addition to The Old Schoolhouse reviews.
As a reviewer, I do often receive products for free. However, I am always honest, and vendors expect me to be honest! I try to give as much objective information as possible, then tell you what I like and what I don't like about each product. In this way, I am hoping you will be able to make an informed decision based on what will work for your family. So understand, if my review is glowing, I really love that product.
Often, I will review products, especially audio books, which I have not received for free but feel like my friends will want to know.
To see what I mean about product reviews, you can check out the reviews category and scan through the many fiction book reviews to find the homeschool products I have reviewed so far.
Thanks for your kindness! As you can see, I am slowly recovering from surgery and returning to blog world.
I wanted to stop by and say hello to another fellow TOS crew member.. Looking forward to working with you this year!

I'm anxious to work with you on this fun adventure. I think a lot of my reviews will need to be put on hold for this project too. It's going to be a busy year!

The bottom line is; We try not to insist on parent-led learning or gravitate toward child-led learning. We try instead to focus on God-led learning and ask for His input and perspective on every aspect of our home school. That way, when others fuss about what Dan and I are doing and make me second guess our decisions -- I can go back to our decision process and find God's fingerprints, reminding me that this is His way.
