Hi everyone, welcome to Add Home with Sally. I'm Sally Clarkson and I have the biggest

privilege in the world to be with so many friends from all over the world who join me every

week to listen to my stories, inspiration, biblical encouragement. And I am just so glad

that you're here today. Thanks so much for joining me.

Hi my friends, it's Sally Clarkson at Home with Sally and I'm so thrilled to have a wonderful

guest on today. I've been doing a series on my new book Awakening Wonder but I'm kind

of bigger than just home education. I was realizing lately that I've kind of been upset by a lot

that is going on because I feel like I think could people just have perspective, especially

if people love Christ, could they be lovers, peacemakers, wise, discerning. And so that's

why I'm especially happy to have my guest on today because my friend Jennifer Pepito

has been, she's been raising children, discipling children, she's been a missionary, she has an

amazing curriculum that I can't wait to tell you about. But most of all we both care deeply

about trying to find spiritual, emotional, character integrity in our lives. And so I just

love who she is, I love the way she is, invested her life and I can't wait for you to hear

from her today. Hi Jennifer. Oh my gosh Sally, it's such an honor to have the chance to speak

with you. I've been reading your books and been encouraged by them for so many years.

Seasons of My Mother's Heart was one of the first books that really helped me to get

through a hard time with my children. And with, you know, I had seven children and at the

time I think there was just four young children. It was so intense. Oh yes. But really, really

carried me through and helped me to look my kids in the eyes and start to be more present and more

joyful. I loved what you talked about. When you talked about making sure the first thing they saw

was a smile and not kind of a sigh of frustration. Or you know, yeah. Yeah, exactly. So thank you,
