I had the pleasure of interviewing veteran homeschool mom (of 11) Brook Wayne (wife and ministry partner of Israel Wayne) on my podcast. She shared her six tips for homeschool mothers, and they're not your typical list! It's always fun to talk to adults who were homeschooled! Brook not only shares what she has learned as a mother all these years, but what she learned from her mother growing up homeschooled.
