I've been homeschooling for eight years and have always received the best advice and encouragement from other homeschoolers, rather than a book or lecture.

I'm hosting weekend retreats all over America. It is like a 24-hour slumber party for moms. We laugh, eat, play games, get massages, win prizes, talk about parenting and even cry a bit.

Raise children who do the right things for the right reasons.

There's something about childhood friends that you just can't replace.

Let me encourage you to continue to wait with faith. God may not perform a miracle, but he is trustworthy to touch you and make you whole where there used to be a hole

My job is to pay attention to my children's genius and allow those leanings to lead them to their future.

I have written about 10 books, all just practical encouragement for moms.

My desire, my passion, was to help moms with practical encouragement.

My purpose is to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate moms.

I believe that God has a specific plan and reason He created each one of us.

If Jesus were playing the game, I don't know what he'd do.

God loves you and created you in His own image.

When a man truly sees himself, he knows nobody can say anything about him that is too bad.

My hope is to see Tom Cruise jumping on my couch.

My natural tendency is to complicate everything--and then to spray words and ideas onto everything afterwards. I've had to develop the habit of keeping things simple.

The art of healing is like an unroofed temple, uncovered at the top and cracked at the foundation.

This is the love that does all things; that brings to pass even the evils we suffer; so shaping them that they are but instruments of preparing the good which, as yet, has not arrived.

Watch out for people who call themselves religious; make sure you know what they mean - make sure they know what they mean!

To reduce man to the duties of his own city, and to disengage him from duties to the members of other cities, is to break the universal society of the human race.

I have done what I could do in life, and if I could not do better, I did not deserve it. In vain I have tried to step beyond what bound me.

My definition of cool is finding your own definition of cool and not necessarily taking your lead from what other people tell you or from what you might read from magazines or see on TV.
