You're listening to Skalais Sisters, episode number 82.

Welcome to Skalais Sisters, the podcast for the classical homeschooling mama, who seeks to learn and grow while she's helping her children learn and grow.

Scalae Sisters is a casual conversation about topics that matter to those of us in the

trenches of classical homeschooling who yearn for something more than just checking boxes and

getting it all done. I'm your host, Brandy Venzel. You can find me over at afterthoughtsblog.net,

spreading my Charlotte Mason Joy through blog posts, study guides, audios, and more. My co-hosts today are Pam Barnhill, Abby

Wall, and Misty Winkler. Pam is a speaker, podcaster, blogger at pambarnhill.com, an author of two

fabulous books, better together and plan your year.

Abby is basically the queen of the Scholeysistership.

Abby is a country-living farmer-rancher, a loving wife and mom five who homeschools and reads whenever she can.

Misty is a second-generation homeschooler with five kids and

too many projects. With her blog, podcast, and membership, she helps you organize your

attitude so you can organize your life. Find her over at simplyconivial.com.

Have you joined the Skolle sister ship yet?

If not, you really should since the annual Christmas gift for Sophie level is so close to ready that it'll probably be out by the time you listen to this.

Santa's elves have been working away for months on an amazing, printable 5x5 challenge journal that is free for

all of our Sophie members in December and January. Go to scolacisters.com slash sistership to join.

This episode is our annual Christmas episode. Unlike previous years, we recorded this back in October when the

four of us were together. I'm so glad we did. It was such a great conversation. Using the concept

of piety, as presented in the liberal arts tradition by Kevin Clark and Ravi Jane, we make

holiday connections you won't want to miss. And so, without further ado, let's get to it.

All right, let's start off with our Skole every day.
