They told me it would go by fast, but I wasn't pre They told me it would go by fast, but I wasn't prepared for this.
Yesterday was Ben's first day of work and Hadassah came with me to my naturopathic doctor's appointment. We had a lovely day together. We went to a cafe, a library, then a couple of thrift stores, and she drove back on the way home.
We stopped at a farmer's market, then drove by the new house we're moving to next month and found a beautiful park nearby, then headed home, which is 30 minutes away.
All of a sudden, it hit me so hard.
They are no longer littles, I kept thinking. They've grown up. They're independent. They're driving. Ben has a job!
Oh friend, just retelling this I want to cry. My heart is heavy with a feeling we call in Portuguese "saudade," a melancholic longing for someone or something that is absent, often accompanied by a sense that the object of longing may never return. Saudade is not nostalgia either. It's so much more than that!
But with the saudade I was feeling, I also felt a strong sense of accomplishment and gratitude. I taught them their entire lives. I helped them with every assignment, read every book, and led them to be who they are today. Capable, independent...
This morning Ben received an email from his boss complimenting him for his hard work. I feel so proud of his accomplishments, but I also feel proud of mine.
I did it! I thought. Nothing was in vain. No work in the Lord is in vain. The seeds I planted are giving fruits, and it is a blessing to watch them grow!
Mama, if you're in the thick of the little years, or watching your own grow up too fast, come sit with us at the Charlotte Mason Inspired Online Conference, June 22-26, 2026.
This year's theme is "Education Is a Life," and it's a sweet gathering of sisters walking this same road. Bring your coffee, your weary heart, and your questions. We'll meet you there. 🤍

What if you are not actually the teacher? Mama, h What if you are not actually the teacher?
Mama, hear us out. Charlotte Mason said it plainly: "Self-education is the only possible education; the rest is mere veneer laid on the surface of a child's nature."
Most of us start homeschooling by recreating a classroom at home. Lesson plans. Lectures. Quizzes. And then we wonder why we are exhausted by Tuesday. 💛
The shift that changes everything? You are not the knowledge-deliverer. You are the guide who opens the door.
Swipe through for three small shifts that take the weight off your shoulders:
→ Why living books do the heavy lifting
→ How narration replaces the worksheet
→ What your real job actually is
You were never meant to pour knowledge in. Save this for the next day you feel like you are doing it all wrong. You are not. 🤍
Want to know how to drastically transfrm your homeschool by doing less, not more?

Most moms quit Charlotte Mason in month two, and i Most moms quit Charlotte Mason in month two, and it's almost never because the method is too hard.
They started at layer three. Living books, a beautiful booklist, the pretty curriculum. Days still felt chaotic. Kids still felt rushed.
A restful homeschool is built from the ground up:
🌿 Layer 1: Philosophy. Children are persons, not vessels to fill.
🌿 Layer 2: Rhythm. A predictable flow, not a rigid schedule.
🌿 Layer 3: Living Books. One rich book beats five dry workbooks.
When you start at the bottom, everything above it finally holds. The booklist works because the rhythm holds it. The rhythm works because the philosophy grounds it.
Swipe through The 3-Layer Path.
Next time overwhelm creeps in, come back to Layer 1. Remind yourself who your children are, and Whose you are. It works every single time. 🙏
For a complete homeschool refresh this summer, join us on June 22-26 for the 8th Charlotte Mason Inspired Online Conference!
Fill your cup, be encouraged, nourish your mind with fresh ideas taught by 30+ speakers, and enjoy the most faith-filled like-minded community of moms who gather to learn together every summer.

I no longer worry about finishing every workbook. I no longer worry about finishing every workbook.
I no longer worry about keeping up with everyone else’s timeline.
I no longer worry about whether our homeschool looks ‘school enough.’
Because I’ve watched my homeschooled kids grow into capable young adults.
And that’s what matters most.
I'm watching my son become the kind of young man I hoped homeschooling would produce — and we've left half our curriculum unfinished, and that's ok. He read so many books and learned things on his own I didn't have in our curriculum.
He learned many valueable lessons and many skills this year. Moved countries, found his first job, began to drive, and found God again in the midst of it all.
Yeah, I've learned many lessons, too. We all did.
Turns out the goal was never the checklist. It wasn't just the curriculum. It was much more than that.
What about you, friend?
Which homeschool worry do you need to let go of?
