You're such a wonderful example of encouragement and I love your zeal for homeschooling and the Lord! Your comments are so valid...isn't it awesome how God uses specific things in our lives, like homeschooling, to draw us nearer to one another and Him? God bless your school year and your walk with Christ! Thank you so much for responding, Stephanie!

You are so right! I love hearing about your journey!! I've been thinking about similar things lately. Homeschooling really does ground us to the Lord and to our families. It is a lifestyle we choose that allows us to intentionally be together and live life daily together. It lets our kids see us walk with God daily, all day and the academics are just a structure to hang the things God is teaching us on. I love what you wrote, thanks! Dear Beth, Great blog.

Homeschooling simplifies things when complications come up. My homeschool blessings: 1. Travel with DH for his job. 2. Available for medical appointments when dealing with chronic illness 3.For a year and a half, I would not have been able to even get them to a school, I was so sick. I could supervise their home education from the couch, with HS moms to take them on outings along with their own kids. 4 DH has been sick since July, we just found out he has a tumor in his chest and needs surgery and possibly Chemo/radiation. Our whole family has really enjoyed being together, even though he is sick. We can homeschool in a waiting room or hospital room, or nearby hotel if he is hospitalized very long. You are so right!
