Our week-end...last week-end...

Last week-end was a week-end that I had anticipated for a whole year...what was so special about it?? It was the annual home school convention week-end. And man, was it good! It, as always, is so inspiring, refreshing and exciting. It is so great to feel recharged. It is wonderful to be encouraged with the vision of home schooling. Often people think that it is a choice some parents make because of financial circumstances, and others think it is a trend...but for us it is more than that. Home schooling provided such wonderful experiences for character developing and discipleship. We also love when our kids learn through living books and nature walks. I am not suggesting that all people home school, or that regular school is bad, but for right now, for our little family, we feel extremely blessed to have been called to home schooling. God has shown His faithfulness to us in this decision. And the best part of the week-end, my favorite author Sally Clarkson, was a speaker at the conference, and she was amazing. She has such an incredible vision as a mom and woman of the Lord. She is funny and real and very inspiring. This past week-end was very, very good!!
