Homeschool Science Curriculum for “Non-Science” Students
Are you wondering if there’s a substantial homeschool science curriculum for “non-science” students? One of the delights of homeschooling is the freedom to research and select curriculum best-suited for each learner.

A Forever Family Via Foster Care – by Cecil Stokes
This week, I'm excited to present to you, "A Forever Family Via Foster Care" by Cecil Stokes. When researching articles on adoption this year, I came across the Boone & Me ministry. I had heard Cecil speak at the Blue Ridge Christian Writers Conference several years ago. I was aware of some of his great work, especially as the producer of one of my favorite movies, October Baby.

In addition to the books, there are also several entertaining and touching movies with components relating to adoption. Whatever you’re looking for, here’s a list to get you started.
