Join Audrey and Bonnie, homeschooling moms to a combined total of 19 children, as they explore the joyfully chaotic side of motherhood including managing your own expectations and parenting intentionally.
Whether sharing tips for loving your body after pregnancy, setting personal goals amidst the chaos of childrearing or troubleshooting potty training, these experienced moms bring both wisdom and hilarity to motherhood.
If there's one thing we long for from generations past, it's the feeling we get that children had a lot more respect for the things that matter! Whether teaching reverance for God, country, property, animals, the earth or anything else, we hope to raise children who value and honor more than just their own interests. Let's talk about the top 5 ways we're working on teaching respect! Get episode guides for ALL our post popular topics here. [https://bonniewiscombe.com/podcast-freebies/]
