We are pleased to welcome Rebecca Kocsis to the podcast. Leslie met Rebecca when we were doing an event in California this fall, and she enjoyed the fellowship they shared so much that she couldn’t wait to have her on the show. Rebecca is a homeschool veteran, having graduated all 5 of her children and having served on the board of the Christian Home Educators Association of California for many years. She has so much wisdom and help to share!

Rebecca Kocsis and her husband homeschooled all five of their children, graduating their youngest in 2006 from their homeschool. They are now the proud grandparents of an ever-growing tribe of energetic boys and girls (12 to date) who are their greatest delight.
