Confession

This school year hasn't been the easiest. There have been many days that I have been tempted to put the kids on the magic yellow bus. I know I am suppose to homeschool them, but I didn't realize there would be so much pressure.

I don't get pressure from Monte nor other parents (homeschooling or not). The pressure is all self inflicted. I guess in the back of my mind I thought that since they are home and getting one on one attention that they would pick things up without a problem. Well it doesn't necessarily work that way. Go Figure!

Knowing I needed advice, I reached out to others in our homeschool co-op for help. They are so encouraging to me. They lift me up in such a special way. They show me that I am doing what God has called me to do and I will be ok. Mostly, they tell me what I need to hear and often, in a nice way, they tell me that I just need to chill out. Wise words!! I don't know how people homeschool without the support of a group.

I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am suppose to be home with my boys. Whenever I questions God about it, He always shows me I am where I need to be. It is not easy, but I am learning as we go.
