Thank you Rachael and Carol! I don’t school my kids at home, but these interviews are still so valuable to me. I apply as much of the lifestyle and habits from home schoolers as I can to our conventional school schedule. And we’re better for it! Very impressed and inspired to focus on what’s important (to us) and to have patience in the meanwhile.
I loved reading this interview - thank you for sharing it, Rachael! "Each family has its own non-negotiables"- that was a helpful way to frame the things we say yes to as a family. I am looking forward to looking at the books recommended here.
Thank you for sharing, Carol! I'm only 4 years into homeschooling to your three decades (incredible!) and am grateful for your wisdom. I've never pursued handicrafts with my boys too much. A good reminder to get back to that. Do you have any favorites in your years of homeschooling?

Greengage Summer and Coromandel Sea by Godden are books I loved - I can’t wait to try China Court! Thanks for the surprise recommendation.
