// - I have homeschooled for sixteen years. Our oldest recently graduated from college, another is a sophomore in college & our youngest is in 7th grade. I would like to offer encouragement to those who are just beginning to homeschool, as well as those whose children are considering college. It takes commitment to remain in homeschooling for the long haul. I would also like others to know that their homeschooled children can succeed in college and in their personal and professional lives.


First Entry


Hello fellow home educators!  Although I have homeschooled for 16 years, this is my very first blog.  The Lord has placed upon my heart a desire to offer encouragement to others in their homeschool journey.  Our oldest child graduated from college with a Bachelor's degree in Music.  She is a violinist and pianist and is currently employed as an instructor at the university where she graduated.  She also got married recently to a wonderful young man who was also home schooled.  Their love story is a precious one! They will soon be moving to where her husband will attend graduate school.  Our second born is a sophomore at the University of Arkansas majoring in business.  He is a jack-of-all trades, which includes playing violin, golfing, fishing, and activities that would take up the rest of my space.  Our youngest is a content 12 year old boy who enjoys following many sports and participating in a fantasy football league with his dad and recently completing golf camp.  My interest in blogging lies in the area of encouraging others for the long haul, preparing our children for college, marriage and/or a vocation or career and to let others know that home educators can succeed in college quite nicely and actually get a job!!
