Hello and welcome to the MS for Mama podcast. I'm your host, Abby Halberstadt, happy wife,

mama to 10, Bible Believing Christian. And I have a really fun announcement and I'm answering

a lot of your questions about that announcement because I've already talked about it on social

media about a development

in our family's story.

But before I dive into that, I want to highlight our podcast sponsor, Voteberg Music Academy.

You guys know that Voteberg is such a fun way for your students who want to learn music

and instruments like guitar, mandolin, fiddle, piano, and ukulele to do those lessons at home so that you can take the commute

off your to-do list completely and also to do it affordably. Private music lessons can be

really expensive, but your students will have 24-hour access to their instructors and they'll have

such a fun way of being motivated to keep going without you're having to nag them to do their

lessons. They can even get badges mailed through their door, physical badges that your kid gets to

get from the mailbox for things that they achieve in the Voteberg challenges. And you can use my code

Emmis for Mama 20 for 20% off each month that you're enrolled and share those lessons

between siblings so it's as little as $30 a month for all of your lessons.

If this sounds like something interesting to you, you should check them out at

Voteberg Musicacademy.com and don't forget to use that code MS for MAMA 20 at checkout.

Okay, so I wanted to do a little caveat because normally I would just go right into

the meat of the show that I've already recorded, but something has developed since I recorded

the show and just recorded that intro. And that is that I mention the news, which is that our

family is doing a third family build this year. We have actually bought some acreage that we're going to be building on.

That's about 15 minutes from where we currently live.
