I just have to tell you, this book is fantastic. I have been wanting to purchase this book for a while; and finally got the chance to buy it used a week or two ago. I am now planning on ordering another copy directly from the Jeub family, and gifting my first copy to someone else. The message of this book is powerful and simple. The book briefly chronicles the Jeub's lessons learned as they have raised 13 children. I read the book in it's entirety in about two hours. It is not long; but it just might change the way you parent! I can't wait to implement some of the ideas, and especially the concept of Love In The House. Read it! And you know I don't say that very often. You can purchase a copy of the book at the Jeub's web-site for $14.95.
This sounds like a great book. Thanks for letting us know you liked it. It always helps me to know that someone else enjoyed a book and then I know I probably will, too!
I want to read this book I saw their episode about larger familes on TLC. I am so jealous of all the books you read but keep it up I am picking ones to read from your reviews.
Good job on your first haircut. I tried to do my son's once with the electric shaver did one swipe and off to Great Clips we went. I practically scalped him! LOL

The bottom line is; We try not to insist on parent-led learning or gravitate toward child-led learning. We try instead to focus on God-led learning and ask for His input and perspective on every aspect of our home school. That way, when others fuss about what Dan and I are doing and make me second guess our decisions -- I can go back to our decision process and find God's fingerprints, reminding me that this is His way.
