I'm an Unschooling mom in Las Vegas, NV. I have all boys! A 14 yr old, a 6 yr old, a 1 yr old and 2 teenage stepsons.
4 of the 5 have some special need or another, and the 5th would be termed "gifted" if he was in school. They all have their own interests and abilities.
Join me as I blog about our Christ-led learning approach..things that work, things that don't, and the antics of family life!
Awhile back I started a mini-list of "imperfections" of mine. I've been thinking a lot about people believing "the grass is greener on the other side". I think it's important to remember that noone, except Jesus, is perfect. Everyone has their downfalls, every situation could be seen as less than perfect.
This is where faith comes in. If we stop asking "Why me", if we stop lusting after others, if we stop seeking financial gains and accept what we can't understand...it's faith. Faith in God's ability not to give us more than we can handle, and to know that everything will play out as God intended it.
Here's the beginning of my list...
anxiety
not changing beds often
throw up
I could go on and on and on...but to what end? My husband could go on and on, my kids could go on and on, I could make lists of my own about them..but why? Let's not concentrate on what we don't understand, but accept it and give glory to God about all the good in our lives.
