Summary
Veteran homeschooling mom of seven, Rachael Carman is here today and we're reminiscing about the good times, sharing what we wish someone would have told us 25 years ago, telling you what matters and what doesn't, and giving you a big ole' virtual cup of coffee and a hug. Mom, you can stay the course. It's worth it, and it won't actually kill you! (And if you're not a homeschooling mom, there's a good bit in here for you, too!)
