Welcome to The Smiling Homeschooler Podcast! This week we are joined by a veteran homeschooling mom of four, Renee Miller. Renee and her husband Rand started Miller Pad's and Paper many years ago and she has been running it with her family ever since. She is an important part of the homeschool community, has seen the fruit of homeschooling, and has a ton of wisdom and encouragement to share. 

Before we begin we want to Thank Teaching Textbooks for helping to make the Smiling Homeschooler possible. We work with them, because we believe their curriculum is one of the best and helps more homeschoolers smile. Go support them, and check out a free trial over at teachingtextbooks.com. 

Also thank you to Homeschooling Today Magazine for supporting what we do! They are another fantastic source of homeschooling encouragement, so please subscribe to their magazine at homeschoolingtoday.com. 

Lastly, just a reminder to pick up the You Da Dad daily calendar as a Christmas present for your husband. This is a great way to encourage your husband and will benefit the entire family. We have a limited quantity left, so make sure to get your order placed at thesmilinghomeschooler.com.
