Our Pregnancy, Motherhood & Homeschool Book Library 📚

Jhema & Lakabrius Sumner
Leland, MS

We are intentionally preparing for pregnancy, motherhood, and homeschooling by learning how God designed the woman’s body, child development, and the nurturing of a child’s heart, mind, and faith. Also, if you’re having a hard time choosing which books to get, we have marked which books we’d like the most.

If you feel led to support our journey, any book from this list would be a blessing. Thank you for sowing into our family’s foundation. 🤍
