About a month ago, we took the boys out of school for the rest of the year and started homeschooling. We had a long list of factors that lead us to this decsion but the main factor was that Bobby and I began to feel that we would be disobedient to what the Lord was laying on our hearts if we did not.
I was optimistic that we would enjoy this experience but I had no idea how much I would LOVE it! It has been wonderful so far. I can't tell you how excited I am to prepare lessons that help my children grow emotionally, spiritually, and acedemically at the same time. It is the most thrilling job I have ever tried to do. I don't think I've ever been so full of joy and purpose with any other task in my life.
The greatest gift that it has given us so far is TIME. We have plenty of time for school, time for playing as a family, time for sports and time for friends and neighbors. We do pray that this will not separate our family from the world but that it will send us more fully into it. We hope to minister with and in front of our children and live and worship in a way that would be more pleasing to Jesus.
