Homeschooling

I feel both called and blessed to be a homeschooling mom. I don't think there's anything more important I could do with my life than to train, love, and educate my children.

It is not always easy - I struggled - especially the first year with decisions and curriculum and whether they were doing okay- until I realized that I need to "Let go and Let God".

And when I let go - I discovered a teaching/homeschooling method that couldn't have been a more perfect fit for us. We now use a Charlotte Mason style to educate our children. It is not perfect, I will never claim to school my children JUST as Ms. Mason did or as she called for. I am still learning along with the children. But - the use of narration, REAL living books, nature study, copywork, and methods from other women such as Ruth Beechick, just FIT us and make us all so much more relaxed and happy. The growth and education of my children using these methods astounds me! I am amazed constantly that this glorious, NATURAL method of living and learning has worked so amazingly well! My children constantly delight and challenge me and I feel so incredibly blessed!
