Jamie Erickson
JAMIE ERICKSON is a former classroom teacher turned homeschool mom.

In addition to writing and speaking, Jamie loves talking faith and family over a hot latte, collecting calories around a table full of friends, and taking grueling hikes with her husband Dain and their five kids (because alas, calories don’t display very nicely on a shelf like other collections).
