This week Emilie chats with Morgan Palomo from Homebound Hearts.  Morgan has a heart for all things motherhood and homeschooling.  "Just let them play!" is a common refrain in the homeschool world when talking about preschool age kids, but what can moms do when that just isn't working?  Morgan has ideas!  If you're the mom of littles (or know anyone who is!), you won't want to miss this one.
