Hey everyone. This is Dorenda Wilson. Welcome to this week's podcast. You might not know me already. So if you don't, I am married to Daryl. We have been married for 28 years. We have eight kids, ages 13 to

27. We have four grandkids, and we have been homeschooling for over 22 years. If you haven't

connected with me yet on Facebook or Instagram, you can find me there. Facebook is just

Dorinda Wilson. Instagram at Durinda Lee Wilson. And then, of course,

my podcast and blog at Durinda Wilson.com. Also, if you didn't know already, I have written a simple,

mercifully short book on homeschooling called The Unhurried Homestooler. You can check that out on Amazon.

It has been apparently a big encouragement to a lot of moms, and I'm so grateful. I was one of those

moms who didn't have a lot of time to read, and so when I decided to write a book, I thought I

would keep it short and to the point.

And so I hope you'll go check that out.

Also recently, January 22nd,

I released my second book called Unhurried Grace

for a mom's heart.

It is a 31 day devotional written just for moms.

And that is also on Amazon.

I would love for you to go check that out there.

Today, I have a very special guest. My husband is here with me. Hey, hon. Thanks for being here.

Hey, my pleasure. So last week he was with me and we talked about how we really believe that children

are a blessing and not a burden. Like we seem to be

told by the world on a regular basis, God has a very different view of children than the world does.

And so we talked about that last week. I bribed him with coffee last week. This week I had to

amp it up a little bit and I had to make him some cookies. So we just had cookies and coffee and we are rar, rar roaring to go here.
