This is Your Morning Basket, where we help you bring truth, goodness, and beauty to your homeschool day.

Hi, everyone, and welcome to episode 38 of the Your Morning Basket podcast. I'm Pam Barnhill,

your host, and I'm so happy that you are joining me here today. Well, one of the questions we often

This episode of the podcast is brought to you by mere motherhood.com. It was back in the 1980s

30 years and nine children later, Cindy has become a popular blogger, podcaster, an award-winning teacher, a journey that she has documented in her memoir, mere mother Motherhood, Morning Times, Nursery Rhymes,

and joys that accompany motherhood.
