I was just looking at my book shelf thinking it was time to reorganize it and get rid of some books we don't need/want any longer. 😊

What Walmart bookcase do you like? Does it hold up well? We’re hours away from ikea and it’s time to retire my Kallax unit.

I agree you should get that fourth bookcase! 😊

Love your sweatshirt! Lots of fun memories there for us 😊

I am crazy like you! 😂 I am a minimalist at heart. Having too many things just causes me stress. But books are my exception. I have always dreamed of having a home library and have been collecting books for a while. Like you, if there is a list I want all of the books on that list. We are running out of space too... But for years I have had this very small, persistent thought that I need to have physical media. Don't know why exactly, but it has definitely been a benefit to my children, to have a small library at their fingertips 😊

Please do a video on your SAT program opinion, thank you!

For physics, did you consider Guest Hollow for their literature based physics? Or did you need something more algebra based?

Your video answered the exact question I had about these specific courses. Thank you!

How many hours per day would you plan for this course, including reading, videos and experiments?

For the Dave Ramsey foundations finance course, did you buy the student add-on?

Hi abbey , how did dd like the SAT prep program ? Did she feel that it helped with the English portion of the test? My dd did great with the math, but the English is really tripping her up and we are looking for a program to help crack the English sat code!!! Ugh thanks!

Sometimes you have to take care of YOU. You can't pour from an empty cup. I'm sorry that you keep having the procedure and not given a local med to help the pain. I hear that a lot of gyn thing there are no nerves there or something crazy thing like that. Either way, thank you for the update. I always appreciate your videos! Take all the time you need. We are chilling this month into July, but trying to keep up with Math because we are behind in that before my boys move up. I am also slowly working on 7th, 9th, and 10th grade curricula, schedules, and buying books and such up as i can.

I was wondering if your daughter received her June SAT scores and what your impressions are on PrepScholar after this first SAT for her? Seriously considering purchasing their course though I have a tight budget. Thank you.

Made me cry

What are you using for German?

This course sounds amazing!!

Thank you the video. Love the advice on using the Mason jar website. I will be canning for the first time this year ans a bit nervous. Also realized I need to fertilize my plants. Thank you so much Abbey for the video, your garden is beautiful!

so as a parent, I am not worried nor do I care about finding a way that is painless to do a research paper, Those children that are college bowled on the first day of class you may have a number of papers to do excessive several pages baby research papers, or papers multitude of subjects My children went to college, They're all grown Were ill prepared to write And the style of AMA or MLA

I love this! ❤ My yard is tiny (a tenth of an acre!), but I'm making the most of it and growing tons of food. Not a year's supply of anything, but I can always add something fresh from the garden everyday during the growing season. Can't make jams from the berries, but can add a handful of homegrown blackberries every morning in my oatmeal. You are right, we don't need acres and acres of land to garden. Some would even argue that smaller gardens are even more productive because they don't overwhelm you as much, so you're most likely to be out tending it more often, thus increasing productivity. Thanks for sharing your amazing gardening tips and your beautiful garden with us.❤❤

What a gorgeous garden. So peaceful.

Thank you Abbey…I’m also having a struggle with letting group things go. With having 2 in High School, 1 in middle school and 1 elementary…it’s a juggle for time. It’s hard to let go of “doing field trips, projects etc together” as each child is at a different stage in their education.

Thank you. Question. Can you share your thoughts on Ramsey personal finance vs Guest Hollow personal finance?

It's always been the times of struggle in our family, where I feel the most guilt about things, that my kids have grown and matured the most. Which is a good reminder that we don't have to be perfect as mothers!

Always love and appreciate the perspective you bring. I cannot stress how encouraging it is to hear you share the fruit of all of those years of hard work you put in during those earlier years of homeschooling. I have a few years yet before mine will be in high school, but I am so grateful for mamas like you who share what the end of the homeschool journey looks and feels like. ❤

Food allergies can cause changes in menstrual cycles and issues like pcos too.

Women’s health is always pushed to the back burner since we care for so many people and take care of so many things. I’m glad you are ok. This was a good reminder that moms need to care for ourselves.

Hi! My daughter is almost 14 and for the first 10 1/2 years of her life, she had the same eczema issues you mentioned. I "joked" that it looked like she has leprosy. Drs always just said it was eczema and prescribed creams and lotions. Finally, it was sooo raw and hurt so much, I decided to cut it some food as as experiment- starting with gluten food + then I was going to switch and try dairy if it didn't work, And go down the line of allergens) within 2 weeks, it was completely cleared up. We went to a tea house and she had gluten (on purpose) and within 15 min of eating, it was as though it hadn't cleared at all and came back with a vengeance. She also had digestive issues (both constipation AND diarrhea, depending on the day)- of course I had no idea cuz I hadn't really looked at her bowel movements since she was three. Now three plus years later she has no skin issues or digestive issues, unless she has gluten. Even sometimes oats because of the cross-contamination. We had taken her in 4 years earlier to get tested for food allergies and it was a waste of time and money. Anyway, just a thought to consider, because like I said... Described was exactly what she was dealing with and it was so horrible and stressful. She had such sensitive skin as a baby too because of all of it!

Thank you! How do you know what classes count toward The GPA? Thanks

Sending thoughts and prayers that you and your doctors figure things out.

Praying for you, Abbey! So thankful that your biopsy came back okay.

Abbey…thanks so much for the update! I can’t Believe with how busy your May was you were able to get so much still done. So thankful that you’re doing okay health wise and so glad you took time off from YT. I agree that women’s health is not discussed enough on YT or anywhere…especially menopause! As it sounds like you have another busy month coming up I pray you are still able to find some rest time for yourself. Just a suggestion but I would 100% try and get away with your daughter this coming month and make some good memories with her. ❤️

Abbey, thanks for the update. So thankful that everything turned out well with your testing. Take care!

I know I’m a little late, but thank you for this!! What did you use for their health credit?

I have items delivered to my front door that I buy from IKEA. Cost less than gasoline to travel to IKEA.

Thank you for this video. It was very helpful as I plan to have my high schooler and middle schooler use a narration journal for some of their subjects this coming year. One question...since I know that you use IEW, what has that looked like for your kids outside of the IEW curriculum? Have they found the IEW structural models to be helpful for even their narration journals? Do you require them to practice using the IEW structural models? Or would you say that their narration journal is more of a freewrite? Also, have your kids used the IEW structual models when writing papers for their literature courses and such?

Hi, thanks for showing us around ❤ Could you please tell me what you use for connecting the cutting mats together? I don't think I saw it in the info

I was wondering what your daughter thought of the June SAT? I think you said she was using the Prepscholar program and I was wondering what she thought? Your course looks amazing!

Beautiful craft room!

beautiful craft room!!!

I’m just curious, now that you’ve done both BB and Apologia, if you had to start high school again which would you choose for Biology? I keep going back and forth for my rising 9th grader. I’m excited to hear about the electronics course. Mine has also decided to go the trade route.

This looks great and can't wait to try it out when my kids are a little older. I love your page as my kids are getting closer to high school. You are a wealth of information and so encouraging to those of us that are nervous for the upcoming high school years.

My High school NEVER told us about CLEP exams!! and I graduated 2 weeks ago! I could've taken my College Algebra CLEP last summer as a junior right after I took Precalculus. I can't believe im just now finding out about this!

How do you fit all this within a 4 day or 5 week?

Oh I didn’t know you are in Indiana too!! How cool

This is wonderful! Thank you for putting it all together and sharing it for others to use 😊

obviously the taxes are American based, how many subjects are more generic that would apply to others living anywhere not in the U.S.?

What are the writing assignments like with BJU Press Fundamentals of Literature? Is it enough to prepare them for writing papers?

This looks amazing! Definitely will be purchasing for my upcoming 9th and 10 graders. Thank you! 👍🏼👍🏼

Wow!!! This sounds fantastic!
