Dandelion seeds posted something very thought provoking and I am working it out here as I have a 5 year old and don't want to get any "glazed" over eye looks.
So on my to do list:
Tell my son :
why he is homeschooled - Because we take seriously the command the Lord has given us in raising him up in the admonition of the Lord Ephesians 6:4
why I want to stay home with him instead of making lots of money that could buy material possessions -because he is worth so much more than dollars!
Why being his mom means so much to me - because he is a precious treasure the Lord has entrusted me with.
What I hope for his future- to obey Jesus in everything.
What I want him to know more than anything else- I love him but that Jesus loves him more.
What I want him to remember if I were no longer here physically - (I really liked what Dandelion Seeds said but I would have to personalize it for my only child) I know he would be sad, but that Jesus would be keeping me safe and would want him to love and take care of his dad. I also want to tell him that even though I never want to leave him, the Lord already knows when I will die and that He knows best. ("All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:13)
also on my to do list is to type up somethine I wrote in a lil'chub notebook on goals and why - rather long and maybe I can edit and make it flow better.
