I know that there is no diploma or degree that could make me any more equipped to teach my children at home. I definitely have moments of weakness throughout each school year which bring me down and make me feel as though I cannot do it for even one more day - but by God's grace I am able to move past those moments and focus on the big picture. I desire to train up children who love the Lord with all their hearts, soul, and mind and love others as themselves. I love having them with me day in and day out. I am also thankful for friends who are walking this road with me!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09059773834331356101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206349614470114098.post-66844978318094022592012-06-26T08:06:11.324-04:002012-06-26T08:06:11.324-04:00Thanks for the sweet reply, Heather.

I think at the stage we are in: adding more students and content to our burden each year, the schooling takes more and more out of us. The committment level is ever rising and daunting. Thus, the break is that much sweeter!<br /><br />I keep coming back to this one thought: God gave us our children to teach day in and day out because He gave us the specific capabilities, shortcomings, and tendencies that will perfectly suit OUR children (assuming we seek His assistance and will). And with His grace, we will equip them all for adult lives that honor Him!<br /><br />Blessings on some relaxing summer sun!<br />HeatherRyan & Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14754731772526687408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206349614470114098.post-484239708132709342012-06-25T14:47:44.674-04:002012-06-25T14:47:44.674-04:00Hurray for the last week!

You are able to teach your children even as they get older. <br />Did you know that my mom, who homeschooled my brothers and me, was a high school dropout because she got married at 17? She did get her GED,though. If she can do it, I know that you can!! :)<br /><br />ENJOY this break from school!Penn and Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08682499215948414146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206349614470114098.post-51462415111924931452012-06-25T10:22:02.718-04:002012-06-25T10:22:02.718-04:00You persevered and ended on such a great note!
