Summary: One of my very first guest blog posts was on Karyn Tripp's blog, Teach Beside Me. She was always one of those “big” bloggers that I never thought would talk to me. Then… I got to know her and I have to say she is one of the sweetest persons I’ve ever met. Karyn has a heart for homeschooling, a heart for moms, and a desire to encourage us all to have more fun and hands-on experiences in our homeschool. I am so excited to share her wisdom and insight with you all today.
