Episode 20
The Many Beautiful Faces of CM Mamas

Welcome Friend!

 
Welcome to the series “The Many Faces of Charlotte Mason Mamas!”
 
Miss Mason said, “[I]n the faith… mothers work wonders once they are convinced that wonders are demanded of them.” (Vol.1, p.44)
 
There is wisdom in her words.
We find ourselves in many different scenarios as we “work wonders” when it comes to our children’s education, such as:
– homeschooling and working from home or outside the home
– caring for a sick parent or relative while homeschooling
– transitioning from traditional school to homeschool
– battling a chronic illness while homeschooling
– home-educating a child with special challenges
– public-schooling moms striving to “spread the feast” in their home culture
 
Can you relate to any of those scenarios?
In this series we’ll be talking to moms who display the many beautiful faces of our CM community!
 
None of our differences – even combined – can overcome who unites us: OUR LORD JESUS; 
not even when changes arise and the Lord calls us to other commitments, like He has done with our precious sister, Simone.
We have been blessed with Simone for our first 2 seasons. The Lord has now called her to other commitments. 
We are grateful for all the encouragement and insight she has shared with us here. We send her off with love and blessing!
 

“It’s been quite the journey these last 6 years with my dad battling cancer.  But God’s mercy and grace was in every moment.”

A few weeks after recording this episode, Erika’s dad went Home to meet his Faithful Father.

This season is dedicated to Erika’s loving Papi, Frank Sanchez.
