If you are a wife, mother, and home educator struggling to balance home, school, and family, Homeschooling at the Speed of Life is the perfect book for you! It offers encouragement and practical advice for creating the peaceful and relaxed home that you long for. This book is written in a friendly, gentle manner by Marilyn Rockett, a veteran homeschool mom who has "been there, done that" – thus reassuring readers that even though we're only human, we can still manage to bring order to our homes while increasing productivity and decreasing stress.

Homeschooling at the Speed of Life provides an introduction to basic home management principles, common sense suggestions for clutter control and tackling those piles of papers, creative ideas for developing life skills in your children, encouraging ways to build relationships by using the home as a center for hospitality, and practical tips on how to keep organized records. The book also includes a bonus CD-ROM with 32 useful forms to assist busy homeschool moms in keeping up with activities and records. Perhaps more importantly, it tells how to make wise use of the time that God has given you, so that you can enjoy being with your family without being preoccupied with things.

Homeschooling at the Speed of Life is unique among organizational books since it can be used as a devotional or Bible study. At the end of each chapter there are Scripture references to look up, questions to discuss, practical hands-on exercises, and thoughts to ponder. Upon reading this book, I was delighted to realize that Marilyn and I are kindred spirits. She even intersperses inspirational quotations and Bible verses throughout her text just like I do. In fact, some of the quotes that she uses – and many similar ones – can be found in my Learning for Life: Educational Words of Wisdom book.

Regardless of where you are in your homeschool journey and no matter how organized you are, you are bound to gain some valuable insights from Homeschooling at the Speed of Life. Click here to read my complete review: www.knowledgehouse.info/review_rockett.html
