"It was this acknowledgement of beauty and goodness in my life that brought freedom from fear. This active giving of thanks was key to unlocking joy." -Jennifer Pepito, "Mothering By the Book"

This is the third post in a series of books for homeschool moms so be sure to check out the others! You can check our previous book lists for moms here and here!

We so often fill our carts, or our arms, full of books for our children but we can often neglect our own book stack that inspires us to do the work set before us well.

Books that encourage us to enjoy these days with our children and that call to mind our mission and our vision for why we are doing this good and important work set before us.

So, we encourage you to carve out margin in your schedule each week to read a chapter or two that will fan the flame in your heart to run the race with endurance set before you in this journey of homeschooling.
