Hey everyone. This is Dorenda Wilson. Welcome to this week's podcast. I am really grateful that you're here with me today. I have a very special guest who I will introduce in just a few minutes.

I want to thank you all for leaving reviews and sharing this podcast with your friends.

I also want to remind you that on my blog, you can listen to all the podcasts from there. And also

there's blog posts with more encouragement if you're looking for more

encouragement for your mom heart. Last thing, if you haven't checked out the Unhurried

homeschooler, it is on Amazon. It is my simple, mercifully short book on homeschooling. I also wrote

a devotional that is just for homeschooling moms called Unhurried Grace for a Mom's Heart, and that is also on

Amazon. So without further ado, I'd like to introduce to you our son, Jake. He is 24 years old. He

lives in Denver, and that's actually where we are recording from today. Usually I record from my home

in North Carolina, but we are out here visiting with Jake for a few days.

My husband and I came out to visit.

And so we get to do this at his apartment in his town on his turf.

So welcome, Jake.

Thanks for being here.

I'm excited to have him because, you know, he was the oldest boy.

So if you guys have homeschooled boys and girls, you know,

both genders, you kind of know there's usually a difference between the two. And so he was

sort of like, you know, being the oldest, they always say it's kind of like your experiment.

And so that was Jake. And, you know, he fared really well. I'm really thankful. He's a smart guy.

And he was really a fun, fun kid growing up. So a lot of you have asked me if I would sit down and

talk with each of our adult kids. And I've already talked with our two oldest, who are girls.

And so now we're visiting
