Pride, oh, how you tempt me.
In the short time I've homeschooled, my near-3yo has sat patiently at the table and done 'school' which was usually a wipe-off alphabet book or a coloring book.
Well, the novelty has worn off, and now she plays. I am *totally* ok with that, but now I feel really stupid for letting myself think I was SO good at keeping her occupied. HA!
Patience-
I just saw this scripture on this blog (which, by the way, has gone 'viral' through her e-bay auction):
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
Hebrew 10:36
OUCH. See how that works? AFTER I have done the will of God, he'll grant me patience. Well, shoot. I need the patience to do it! (I especially needed the patience this morning during MATH.) I guess, maybe, the point is that I need *GOD* to do his will, and the patience is a blessing of a different sort.
