The Rumors Are True..

After lots of prayer, serious discussions, research up the kazoo...we have finally decided to answer the Lord's call and homeschool. This was laid on our hearts months ago...but we fought it tooth and nail. I had every excuse in the book, listed out all of my faults that would cause me to fail the kids, even had a few nightmares of college age children who can't read! But the Lord knew better, duh! Now, with just a little over a month before we kick off our adventure, I can honestly say I am excited. I know that we are going to encounter hurdles and meltdowns, both the kids and me! I am anxious if I picked the right curriculum or if I will be able to answer all their questions. But knowing that I am following the will of the Lord and the direction He has shown us...well, that part is just plain awesome! His wisdom, patience and endurance are the only things that will get us through this next year. We are praying that His grace would flood our lives and our home will be filled with all that is pleasing t0 Him.
