Write In His Light

Am I all ALONE??

I've been thinking of a lot today about this.  I always thought I felt I must have been adopted for all the 'weird' things I do according to my family.  Besides, my sister telling me so!  Don't get me wrong I love them, but we think SO differently!  From the time that I was little, I knew that I wanted at least four children.  (I think that I secretly wanted more though)  Everytime I said something about this though, everyone around me would GASP and exclaim that that is a lot of children!  I didn't think so....FAST FORWARD to today.....I do have four children and we homeschool....even BIGGER GASP! 

Right now we don't know where GOD is going with us...we don't know where we will live or what we are going to do.  A lot of people who think we have too many right now and just like "see" "see" "see" you can't afford four kids.  Um, no...we would be in this situation whether we had four or just one!  If I thought this mentality then we wouldv'e NEVER had our last two.   My 4 yr. old sweet frilly princess daughter who JUST decided that SHE will go in the potty! (good thing for M&M's!)  :) And for my sweet little 2 yr. old "lovey" boy...who melts this mammas heart!  They are SUCH blessings!  We didn't listen then to others...why should we now!? ;)  I am trying to hold out and wait for God!  I know that He is about to do something big!  It is going to be for His Glory!  I have been dreaming though...(I hope it is not too far off.....)...

Here is my daydream:

That we could find some like minded homeschoolers...who love being around kids and don't mind them...and that we could hang out with them and live on some land together....a whole homeschooling, God faring community!!  I wonder if there is anything out there like this??  If there is...I need to find it!  I am tired of not having anyone that enjoys ALL my children around.  I feel VERY alone that I am the only one that doesn't mind children around all the time!  Where oh where???

Hi there! I have 4 kiddos too, my last 'unplanned' surprise has been such a blessing. He is now 6 yrs old and oldest is now 15! My SIL in Nebr. has 7 boys, and wow did she ever feel the persecution you are getting.

There ARE like-minded homeschoolers, but where they all are I don't know either. Most I know of are trapped in "busyness". I'm in So. CA by the way. I was reading that there was a group that was all moving to the east coast- http://christianexodus.org/

Look to the Word and just quietly choose what is the best :)
