Adding

Hope this shows how much of a nonsuper mom I am. I like to blog and record the things we cover but I only have so much time in a day. I have to prioritize and blogging is at the bottom of the list. With that being said, I should also confess that I have not been the amazing teacher I would love to be either but maybe that isn't exactly true either.

Considering the reason behind my homeschooling, we are still right on track. We get his lessons in but they are less exciting and glorious at this point in the year than when we began. My three kids are all in training everyday, all day. I may not be sitting with them doing flash cards all day but they are learning everyday how to treat others with respect, how to use their imaginations, and how to put God first and foremost in their day all day. I've been reminded of these things lately and have wanted to share in hopes that others could stop giving themselves impossible standards and just enjoy the moments in this life God has given us. Plans are ruined all the time. I don't want to think of them as ruined plans anymore but instead as God's day looking differently than mine and I will choose joy in HIS. I don't want to portray something I'm not. I don't want to add to these harsh worldly standards. I want to LIVE joyfully and purposefully. After some practice in that, my life is becoming a whole lot simpler.
