    Thank you for this encouraging conversation. I am finding this all true. My daughter is preparing for her final year and then for college. She had always lagged far behind in certain concepts. I just recently realized that she hadn’t been ready before. She is quicker to jump in and get it now. Thankfully our consults have provided great textbooks like Jacobs and Strayer Upton! God Bless Jason with Math and Science on youtube also.
    Math has been at the top of my prayer list!

      That is so encouraging to hear, Sandy. Her own motivation to study
      will carry her as far as she needs.

    Thank you for all the lovely math ideas! We have been enjoying the Beauty & Truth Math guides since January of 2021, I highly recommend them. I am looking forward to the “Let’s Play Math” book…it shipped yesterday. Also, thanks for the reminder of how much freedom there could be in the upper year’s streams. God bless each one of you for the gifts and talents you share, very grateful over here.
