Welcome to The Smiling Homeschooler Podcast! I'm Ben Wilson. A couple of years ago, we had four amazing homeschooling moms, Lexi, Ali, Rebekah, and my wife Rissa, join us to share their homeschooling journey. Now they are back! We asked them many questions to see how their first couple of years has been, and their answers were amazing and encouraging.
