Success
| Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.
— Henry David Thoreau
I am really bad at spacing on this blog -- in case anyone can help me figure it out -- please help!!! I keep getting one big paragraph and I hate it!!!
I think that us homeschool moms have a lot to learn from this quote. We are just too busy to see what success we have in our children. I do see some success at the strangest times. Like last week at my son's baseball game. He is 8 years old and plays with kids who all go to school. These kids already use very foul language and it really bothers him. I wonder what it would be like for him if he was with them all day. Would it bother him then? Probably not because the more you hear and see bad language and bad behavior the less it bothers you. It almost seems normal.
So all I have to do is go to one of his baseball games and I leave there extremely happy that no matter how hard it is to homeschool or I should say how hard it is to always know that you are doing a good job, all you have to do is look around and you will see how soft your child's heart is for God. My heart breaks when I see an 8 year old who already has a hard heart.
God Bless, Michelle |
