About Me

Before you start looking around, go ahead and grab a copy of my book, Homeschooling from the Inside Out

It’s completely FREE. Just click over and fill in your first name and primary email below and we will send you a digital copy immediately!!

 

My name is Bekki Sayler, Professional Nerf Bullet Dodger, “Never-Gonna-Quit” homeschooling mom of five sons, creator of A Better Way to Homeschool, author of Homeschooling From the Inside Out, and homeschooling mom of five rambunctious sons. Yep.

It’s as crazy as it sounds!

I am most thankful for the love and support of my husband of almost 30 years, Craig, for being my rock and best friend in this wildlife we created together.

When I’m not dodging nerf bullets or stepping over piles of Legos, I create classes, printables, books, and resources to encourage Christian homeschool moms to trust the Lord in their journey. My heart’s passion is to share the truth that it is possible to educate your kids using God’s word as a guide while focusing on the holy trinity of homeschooling: heart, attitude, and character.

About 20 years ago, my husband tricked me into homeschooling. I was completely against the idea and thought the few homeschoolers I knew were weird. I was convinced I could not educate my own kids either. He didn’t care. Well, he cared. He just knew we were supposed to do it. He asked me to try it for one year. “If it’s terrible, horrible, no good, and very bad then we can quit.” That was almost two decades, and three fewer kids ago.

In my spare time, I write down everything I can think of that will help you in your homeschooling journey.

I’ve even written two books Homeschooling with Confidence and Homeschooling from the Inside Out.

 I figure if I can help you skip the mistakes I made along the way, I would be doing you a real service!

Homeschooling is hard.

Had I known that from the beginning I might have quit before I figured out I could actually do it.

Let’s stop trying to be perfect homeschoolers and realize that we need each other on this crazy journey. Okay?

“Come here when you’re at your wit’s end and need advice from someone who’s been there. Come here when you’re having a hard day and just need to know you’re not alone. Come to this group when your kid does something unbearably sweet, incredibly brilliant and you don’t want to annoy all your Facebook friends by gushing.”

Because I am here for you.

When you share with me and I get to share with you, we lift each other up.

And even if we disagree, we speak with kindness and respect. Because we’re all doing the best we can.

Sound like your kind of homeschool friend? Great!

 

Meet my family:

• Craig and I have been married long enough that our music choices to convince our kids we are ancient.

• Our five sons keep us hopping.
  • 28-year old Thomas is our guinea pig child. He survived our novice parenting and homeschooling without life-debilitating scars.
  • Micah was our first fully homeschooled son. He recently graduated high school while simultaneously earning most of his Associate Degree. Still trying to decide which one of us he takes after. Since I am the one writing, I will declare, “he takes after me.” I can say that since I have control of the keyboard.
  • Isaac is 18- years old and JUST graduated high school while simultaneously earning his Associate’s Degree. He has also taught himself how to play the guitar. Honestly, he’s really good. No earplugs required.
  • Sam is our 17-year old gentle giant. Somewhere hidden in that DNA that I don’t want to understand is genetic code that makes his toes look like fingers. He is our lover of all things green.
  • Stephen is our 15-year old baby. God saved him for last so that there would be 6 other people to watch him. He is very creative and very determined. (So was the inventor of the atom bomb. Pray for us.)
  • Sprocket is our golden lab (aka doorbell). He is goofy, hyper, and never lets anyone come within 112 feet of our front door without announcing their presence and scaring the pants of the rest of us!
