Plan to Be Flexible has given me so many new ideas and tips to try out."-Rebecca of Our Life-Home and School blog "This book was invaluable for a beginning homeschooler like me. What an incredible resource for planning our future as a homeschool family "-Heidi, homeschool mom of three "In the first pages alone, Plan to Be Flexible spoke so clearly and loudly to my heart. My son and I do school right now with clenched fists and teeth. It is not inspiring or encouraging, and no one is really getting anything lovely out of it. But this book has given such a beautiful vision-a clarity as to what we must do as parents to truly cultivate a love of learning in our children (while still building relationships). This book has been a wonderful guide to walk us toward healing and wholeness."-Jennifer King of WorthABowedHead.com "What a great resource for the homeschooling community "--Mike Yorkey, author of more than 75 books, including the Every Man's Battle series Overwhelmed by the challenge of homeschooling in the real world?
