LIving with chronic pain can make homeschooling a challenge. I do and want to encourage others to stick with it. Every second spent training our kids will be fruitful, maybe not right away but in its due time.
Today i woke up in tremendous discomfort. These kids went into blessing Mommy mode. They were able to get my pain meds and water to help me. They opened my windows to let in light and fresh air and then started and actually almost completed it all without my help. One daughter even brought her books into my bed and we did math there while i waited for the pain to ease up to become functional
Of course everyday is not perfect, but today when I needed them, they were there for me. I was humbled and blessed by the kindness of children. Some people feel they can not homeschool because of challenges in their live; be it illness, single parenting, etc. Please be encouraged...if God called you to homeschool you WILL be able. Joyce Meyers said on Tv this morning, "We do what we can and God does the rest" That stuck with me and made me smile.
Some days might be a little slower to start, or earlier to finish but every day we follow His leading is a day worth celebrating. |
Tuesday - I heard Joyce say that too
