Dreams and Blessings

Just Rambling...

Here we are in the middle of the week.  Seems like time flies by so fast anymore.  My little girl will be 3 in June.  My son will be 5 in July.  I can't believe it sometimes, it seems like just a little while ago they were so tiny and still nursing!
My baby has sleep apnea so she is getting her tonsils taken out on the 14th-Good Friday.(But it won't be good for her)  The 4 year old girl I babysit is having open heart surgery on Good Friday.  She has holes in her heart so they're gonna patch them up-very scary.  I know kids bounce right back, but it's just hard to understand why such a young person should have to endure OPEN HEART SURGERY!  That's like what you hear of old people having done- not 4 year olds...
I bought a wonderful book on Amazon .com.  It's called The Ultimate Book of Homeschooling Ideas.  I haven't got to the activities yet, in the beginning of the book it tells all about the differences in traditional school and home school and the different effects each one has on children.  It states a good response for when people ask me why I homeschool-If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself and that includes teaching children.  I never thought of saying that before but it's true!  My family is not supportive in our choice to homeschool-they say the kids need socialization.  I've tried explaining to them that I will make sure my children get plenty of that with homeschool groups and stuff like that.  They don't seem convinced.  Oh well, they'll either have to come around or accept it!
Blessings--Jessica

Homeschooling is a blessing and your family will probably see how it is a good thing for your children; if not, God will be pleased that you are doing what you feel is best! jill
