Hey Friend!
Well, we made it through another homeschooling year and here are the lessons we learned! I am so relieved that we homeschooled this year. So much drama in my daughters grades that I am just so happy that they can focus on their work at home and then go to sports and just enjoy their friends and sports without being intertwined in that. Not only are my kids learning the regular subjects and learning to put God in the center of it all, but they are learning so many life skills we just don’t have time to teach when they are away from home 12 hours a day with school and sports. It was really an enjoyable year for these girls and now they don’t want to go back to public school, there is not an option for Christian School for high school in our area and we are not going to be in the same school district with our new home, so they are going to make the choice as to if they go back to school and play sports or if they homeschool and don’t play sports. They want to play sports in the school district they did this year and since we won’t be living in that one, they can’t play high school sports there is the homeschool. It really is an unfortunate rule in MN, but whatever decision they make, God will be with them.
Some of our favorite activities this year were making noodles, sourdough recipes, preserving food even this winter, caring for our animals and some great self sufficient skills and lessons from running your own business.
It really amazes me how much kids rub off on each other and how pleasant they are when they aren’t having to compete with others and can just be themselves. We are grateful to be surrounded by so many with similar values which is so encouraging when the world is getting so dark! Continue to be the light and press on with keeping God in the center of your life and teaching your kids to do the same. As we are getting closer to end times, it is even more important that these kids have a solid spiritual foundation so they can help blesss others and discipleship them as well!
Keep Shining Bright Friend!
