Please welcome our guest today, Andria Smith, aka @thehumoroushomeschooler. After working for a number of years in public education,  Andria was "forced" into homeschooling her two children, ages 5 and 9, during the pandemic. She never dreamed she would fall in love with homeschooling as she has, tho, and isn't looking back.   I found her on Instagram, where she is spot-on and "keepin' it real" about the homeschool momma life. What a blast it was talking to her - and I know you'll love listening in, too! Go follow her if you don't already - @thehumoroushomeschooler
