Or read something fresh?

Certainly you have heard of the new online magazine for homeschool moms, The Heart of the Matter, featuring articles written by wonderful homeschool moms just like us where you will find the Homeschooler of the Week, Forums, and Giveaways.

I want to direct your attention to another new online magazine, Growing in Grace Ministries. GGM is a mother-daughter ministry publication that desires to bring encouragement to relationships in the lives of women of all ages. It is especially an online magazine for girls and includes articles for girls about friendships, beauty, and growing in grace among others. Take time to check it out Mom! See if it is something you might want to share with your daughters.
