Yes, it was time to change things. I needed to focus on God again. To walk the walk....So I prayed for a long time, for many days and finally I could say from my heart ' Lord, those are your children and you will do what is best. You lead, I follow!' Finally, finally I felt at peace my heavenly father once again! Peace in my heart and soul! What a wonderful feeling! I enjoyed this for a while. Then the school had a meeting and they announced that the children will have to stay in school until four o clock in the afternoon! One of my daughters has a math lesson at 3:15 pm!! Next year they are supposed to stay this late every day! I am shocked! The husband thinks it's not so bad, children in the States have school until late. Well, there are schools in Germany where children stay until 2 pm and then go home. Fine, that's what I want. If they are in school until four every day, where is the time to do sports, take their piano lessons, study for tests and just play????

That time just isn't there. And they are getting influenced by their ( pagan ) peers if they don't tease them for beliveing in God. Many times the children are without friends at school because their peers are playing witches and harry potter. Often nobody wants to play with them. They don't want to go to school anymore. Unfortunatly my husband is unsaved and so he doesn't quite understand this angle.

Anyway by now the children despise going to school. They started out liking it a lot and they used to be exiting for them. It hurts so much to see how your children are hurting inside, suffering...the youngest daughter has been known to skip classes....this is not good!!!!
