I’m a little reluctant to share with you these tips. Not because they don’t contain some fantastic resources… they do. But like many of you, I have school-aged children and while this season of life is wonderful, it is fraught with the consistent feeling that the house is NEVER in order or I’m NOT DOING ENOUGH to give my kids everything that they need.
Am I all alone here?
Well- meaning, yet patronizing advice about “how to make your life perfect with 149 simple rules” is prolific today. The last thing I want to do is provide information that makes you feel inadequate as a mom or dad. I do, however want to share with you a few links that I think you’ll find helpful as you prepare your homes for this school season.
And homeschool moms/dads (of which I’m one) … don’t worry… this information is relevant to you, too.
