Reflections on the Early Years ~ Home-Educating a Teen

My daughter has now turned 13 and I can hardly quite believe it. There are days when I long for my little baby, yet I remind myself that I have enjoyed every moment as much as possible. But still, time passes and I can't help but want to slow it down a bit.

Noting down some feelings about this stage—this stage of home-educating a teenager—I decided to send them to Ross Mountney. I've enjoyed sharing our home-educating journey on her blog over the years and you can read my latest post here:

Reflections on the Early Years

Ross's writings on home-educating are an inspiration and comfort to many and I always recommend her books to those dipping their toe in!

Alice, I love that article, so beautiful.

Have enjoyed your newsletter for a while and your posts on Ross’s blog but for some reason I’d never got around to visiting your site. So glad I have now, and will certainly be back.

The resources you've created look wonderful and I’m particularly excited about Celandine. The compassionate eating convo is well underway in our house (4 parts vegan/2 vegetarian) and this will complement it beautifully. I shall definitely be picking that up for my almost eight year old – think she’ll love it :)

Hi Hayley, Thank you so much for visiting and taking the time to leave such a kind and thoughtful comment. I'm glad to welcome you here. :-) If you would like a signed copy of Celandine, do let me know—I can send one to you directly. Warmly, Alice

Whoops, just ordered before seeing your reply. Such a kind thought though :) Have got my eye on a couple of other bits from the shop and love the sound of a wilderness-wolf-adventure-nature book, will look out for that. All the best x
