Episode #44 Staying Sweet & Happy During Hard Challenges with Ashley Ence

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2355010/fan_mail/new] Hey Friend, I'm so glad you're here. This episode is all about Ashley who has a child with autism and a husband with epilepsy. She shares with us the reality of what her life looks like and feels like. She shares how with the help of family, father and Jesus Christ. She has been able to maintain a happy sweet disposition despite this ongoing challenge. Ashley is so inspiring. I know her in person and she truly is so smiley and happy! She shared some really helpful tips and I think anyone going through anything hard can benefit from it. But especially anyone in a similar situation is going to find a lot of validation and help from Ashley. Ashley is also in the middle of writing a book specifically directed towards parents of children with autism. And I will definitely be posting on my Instagram when this book comes out. You're going to love it! Whatever point in motherhood you're at, thanks for being here.  I am forever cheering you on! xo, Layna B.

Episode #43 - Have you ever considered homeschool? - with Laura Zundel

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2355010/fan_mail/new] Have you ever considered homeschool? Or felt God nudging you towards it? Or maybe you are new to homeschool and wondering what to do! Well this conversation is for YOU!!  Laura shares what brought her to homeschooling and *spoiler alert* it wasn't any problems they had with public school. It was all God! We share what we would do differently if we could start over and what advice we would give to new homeschooling moms. Whatever your schooling choices, I hope this encourages you to consider your options. There are so many educational options and when it boils down to it, the most important thing we can do is spend a lot of time teaching our children about God.  I hope you know how proud of you He is and that He is forever trying to guide and direct you.  xoxo Layna B.
