WELL...some say that's a deep subject, and I agree. But, an even deeper subject that's been on my heart for the last year is...school. For many reasons, we decided to change things up in our family this school year. Instead of the kiddos going to public school, I will be "schooling" them. I know, you all are scared, aren't you?!?! I am, too!!! We have completed our first week and at this point, we are doing just peachy. It was a good week, still many kinks to work out, but they will get worked out.
I am reminded of Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." So many times in life, we try to handle the things that come our way and we don't think we need Christ to help us or get us through it...I knew from the beginning that this wasn't one of those times. I knew I would have to fully rely on Him and His strength, patience and mercy. Thankfully, those are new everyday!
In all seriousness, I just have a peace in my heart that this is what my family needs for the time being. We are learning together and making memories...that's what it's really about. If you ever visit with an older lady, maybe a grandmother, she will tell you to enjoy the mothering days, because they go by too quickly...I plan to enjoy this year and enjoy the time I am getting with my kiddos...
