Disclosure: Lisa generously offered a free book for a giveaway to one of my readers! The opinions I have given are mine and may differ from others but were not influenced by the company.
"So You're Thinking About Home Schooling" is the book that convinced me that we could really do it and I have bought a few copies for friends who were (notice the past tense) on the fence, so that would have to be my favorite. Although "Creative Correction" and "Speaking Mom-ese" were good as well, and I just started "Friendship for Grown-Ups" Lisa is such a blessing to so many and we would love to win!
Worth a try… 🙂
I had no idea she had written so many books! Creative Correction is the only one I've read but The Busy Mom's Guide To Wisdom looks good!
I love Lisa. I watched her on Facts of Life when I was growing up. I would love a copy of her book.antrichards@yahoo.com
Friendship for Grown-ups. As a military spouse, I find myself relying more on myself than desiring to seek out friends.
"Taking Care of the Me in Mommy" sounds wonderful and necessary, especially if you are homeschooling!
I follow you via email daily!
I'm loving the Christmas Advent book. I've been looking for things to do with the kiddos to count down until Christmas! And it is great to help them remember the true meaning of Christmas!
I think I'd like Busy Mom's Guide to Prayer the most
