- Homeschool Flying In Michigan - This is a list for Home Schooling moms in Michigan who would like support and encouragement in home schooling and home organization. We will also be sharing information and events in various areas. If you would like to encourage fellow flybabies or receive encouragement by sharing tips to help each get more organized, recipe swap, and any and all areas that affect the stay-at-home mom who home schools. I pray this will be a place of warmth where friendships are developed or deepened. So, please make yourself at home. Please respect each other and refrain from debating. Christian beliefs are welcome here, so if that will offend you, this is not the group for you.
