    Jamie,
    I love your blogs and would absolutely love to hear you speak in person. You inspire me to be the best mom and homeschooling mom I can be and also encourage me to keep working at writing. Thanks so much!

    A homeschool convention would be such an inspiration as we head into high school and jr.high next year. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

  72. Becca

    I’ve long intended to go to a conference, but not yet been able to work it in. A free ticket would be a fabulous treat! The Greenville conference would probably be the best one for me. Thanks. 🙂

  73. Janalin

    My husband has not committed to home schooling our children and is still on the fence. He HAS however agreed to attend a conference with me to help finalize our decision. I know that attending one of the conferences would help him come to a peace with doing something I feel so called to do. I hope to meet you in Greenville!

  74. Misti

    I have never been to this conference, but really want to make it a priority this year. Midwest Conference in Cincy is where I will be.

  77. Nicole G

    It would be amazing if I was able to attend the SC convention! Ive been following all of your blogs for a while now and it would be great to “meet” you and learn more about our homeschoolin journey!

  81. Linda

    I have twin girls that are 9 that I want to homeschool in the near future
    but I want to start off well and this conference sounds like a great
    opportunity!

    Would love the opportunity to go to the Ohio conference and hear you speak! I have learned so much following your blogs. Thank you for writing!

    I would love to go to either South Carolina or Ohio. I have never been to a HS Convention and would really love to go.

  97. Tina

    Oooh, my family wants to attend the Ohio convention because we have heard such great things about it & since this is our first year of homeschooling. It would be awesome to have registration paid.

  100. Beth Dugan

    South Carolina would be wonderful. But of course, Ohio would be just fine as well 🙂 We are flexible people as all homeschooling families must be. Flexibility is the name of my game.

  106. Aubree Kenne

    I am so excited that you will be at the convention this year! I have been two years ago and loved it but it would be amazing to see you…extra bonus!!
