Homemaker Portrait | Jen Thayer

I am chatting with seasoned homemaker, Jen Thayer, about her experience keeping a home for the past 25 years with her husband Dan and their 9 children! Jen is a homeschooling mom with 3 special needs kid, 2 of which are internationally adopted. We talk about how these children are an integral part of their unique family culture, bringing challenges and blessings Jen never expected but thanks God for every day. We cover all the usual ground of beginnings, influences, challenges, fails, wins and favorites, and we bond over our love of literature and the importance of a family library. EPISODE NOTESShow Notes | https://www.theartofhomepodcast.com/post/homemaker-portrait-jen-thayer-season-19-ep-3ALLISON'S UPDATE:Protein Oat Pancake RecipeJapanese Omelet PanBreakfast Sandwich Recipe using similar cooking method for eggsTraditional Tamagoyaki (rolled omelet)-videoOTHER NOTES:Wise Words for Moms chart by Ginger Hubbard12 Ways Your Phone is Changing You by Tony ReinkeFavorite analog tools-subscribe to Homemaker Happy Mail for more details.
