Are you interested in Charlotte Mason home education, but you're not sure if that works for real-life homeschool moms? JoAnn Hallum is one of my favorite people to follow on Instagram. Her beautiful words, hysterical stories, and real-life reminders of what is truly important always make me think and make me smile. She likes to remind me that she's a writer, not a podcaster, but I think you're going to definitely want to hear more from her after you listen to this conversation! No wonder Mariel told me that JoAnn needed to be next on my list of podcast guests!

Homeschool Conversations with Humility and Doxology - True Rest for the Weary Homeschool Mom (Summer Audioblog Series)

True Rest for the Weary Homeschool Mom (Summer Audioblog Series)

Homeschool Conversations with Humility and Doxology

play

07/31/23 • 10 min

I love how there has been an emphasis recently within education, especially in classical circles, on restful-learning. As I have pondered what “rest” means in my own life (not just in my home education), I return over and over again to the concept of resting from my own workings and attempts to earn God’s favor by being awesome.

My rest is found by relying on the accomplished work of Jesus Christ for my identity.

The hard news that I will never be “good enough” drives me to repentance and humility.

The blessedly amazing news of grace drives me to doxological shouts of joy.

It doesn’t sound scary. I just am already overwhelmed. I feel like I’m not even doing a good job just all the other mom and life and keeping the house running, stuff I’m supposed to be doing.” How is that mom supposed to now add home educating to her list of to-dos? Jamie: I think first and foremost, you can’t borrow trouble. I did that in my early years. I looked ahead to the years I’d be having to teach upper math skills. I wasn’t there yet in the same way that I can’t fear having baby number five when I’m only on baby number one. God will give you exactly what you need when you need it. I think sometimes that really is the struggle with moms. It’s not our overwhelming busyness, it’s we look at the busyness that we have right now and we add in all this other busyness that we think is going to come not realizing that your kids grow with you and so your busyness will change and will ebb and flow. I think also many moms who have started out in the public school and have transitioned to homeschooling will confess to actually being less busy. The busy that they do have in their lives of homeschooling is actually a busyness of their own choosing. What I mean by that, when you have kids in the public school, you think, “Oh, somebody else is teaching them and then they come home.” What happens when they come home is you’re doing homework with them for hours after school. This is homework at the end of the day when you are tired and you are spent, you have no more gas in the tank, you are having to tutor to someone else’s teaching style and ways of teaching like common core math. You are actually proactively teaching and not having to reactively retrain. You get to teach them regular old math or whatever it is you want to teach versus the way somebody else is wanting them to learn, and you get to have a long runway of learning right alongside them. You get to start out with the basic fact and add on to the next fact. You’re not just thrown into the deep end having to remember all of these things that it’s been years since you’ve learned. I think sometimes we can look at homeschooling and think, “I can’t do that, that will make me so much more busy than I already am now.” I would argue that it’s the opposite. It’s when you have your kids in school and you’re racing out the door to get them to school or to pick them up from after-school activities, bundling up all of your younger ones, waking them up from naps to go pick up your older ones, whatever, all the chaos that happens when you have to live half of your life outside of your house, I think that’s a different kind of busy. It’s a busy of not your choosing."

01/10/22 • 35 min

Welcome to Season 5! I’ve already recorded some amazing conversations that I can’t wait to share with you all. Be sure you’re subscribed in your favorite podcast player.

Today we’re doing something totally different; I’m a little nervous! To kick off Season 5 we’re doing a little Ask-Me-Anything Listener Questions episode. These are questions y’all emailed or sent via social media. And to help me out (and make sure I’m being real with you guys) I have my daughter, Emma, here on the mic with me.

If you’re new around here, you can meet Emma, me, and the rest of the family here.

Your Listener Questions:

  1. What are your thoughts on dating?
  2. I want to hear the story of how you and your husband met and fell in love!
  3. State or Private college?
  4. I have 3 children that I am homeschooling and I work part-time. This is our 4th year homeschooling. It has not been easy, but it is totally worth it. My question is how can I continue to keep my children engaged in their subjects while homeschooling them. They are older now, and I have to be creative as of late. How would you approach this matter?

My conversation with Jen about successfully working while homeschooling

Raising Lifelong Learners with Colleen Kessler

Your (Modern) Morning Basket: Morning Time and “Us-schooling” (an interview with Pam Barnhill)

5. What has been your favorite read aloud with your kids? And how do you structure reading books your oldest may like the best with having younger ones who may not be ready yet? Reading before bedtime separately? Or rereading when the younger one is ready? What about series?

A few of our recent favorite family read-togethers:

  • Book of Dragons, E. Nesbit
  • Stories from the Faerie Queen, Mary Macleod
  • Animal Farm, George Orwell
  • Chronicles of Narnia, C. S. Lewis
