Sep. 3, 2008 - Julia
Recently we have had the blessing of a visitor from Switzerland. Julia has been staying with us in our home for the last three weeks, with one more week to go before she leaves for Brisbane to study English.
This is the first time we have had someone stay with us for so long. She is a lovely young woman, a teacher back in Switzerland. We met her family whilst on holiday in Thailand six years ago. She has become Zachariah's (5) teacher on most mornings, and he has revelled under her individual attention! She has been taking him into her caravan, spending time on his literacy & numeracy. He has been asking to "do school", even beyond his normal morning routine. I am thinking that maybe I should ask the Lord for someone like her on a more permanent basis!
The beauty of home education is being able to have different people speak into your children's lives as God brings them in. His timing is perfect and He knows just what we need.
