Homeschool Memories and Giveaway
I was thinking back over the 20 years I’ve been homeschooling a lot lately. So much has changed! One of the best things to have come along is homeschool blogs.
Back in the day, I’d wait for my envelope full of homeschool offers on those 4 x 6 cards and shuffle through them. Anyone remember the one about colon cleansing? True story.
Or, I’d wait for my The Old Schoolhouse Magazine and read every article. Now even TOS is digital! Instead of gathering online, we gathered in support groups and state conventions. And, to be honest- I miss that.
But, homeschooling has changed and grown. I have more homeschooling friends than I’ve ever had, most I’ve never met IRL. Facebook groups have taken the place of yahoo email groups and email forwards. Truly, my world has broadened and I’m thankful for that.
Surely God in his Providence knew there’d be a time when our strength would need to be in numbers and support would come from the four corners. And I’m glad!
We’ve shared the loss of children, parents, and spouses. We’ve cried over prodigals and been the prodigal an online-sister called home. Experiencing the loss of fellow homeschool moms and bloggers keeps life real. The online part dissipates a bit.
So, this year- sharing a back-to-school party and giveaway is reminder of all the sweet ladies who put their heart into what they offer, the way only a homeschool mama can. Please stop by each of the sites in the giveaway (you get kudos if you do!) and let them know how much they mean to you!
They mean a lot to me!
