We are beginning a new chapter in our homeschooling. It has been 4 days so far and going well. I just love those 2 kids so much - but they sure do drive me crazy! Jacob is constantly daydreaming and Laura Rose is constantly trying to start an argument with me! But somehow, at the end of the day - we get a lot done and have fun doing it. We painted Mt Kilimanjaro yesterday and we learned about NYC today. You should have seen Jacob's face when I showed him pictures of 9/11 and told him about that day. After looking at photos of the Muslim "pilots" - he said, "but didn't they die too?" His sweet nature could not imagine such hate in someone's heart.
I love teaching my children. I love being able to teach the love of Christ in all subjects. I love being able to freely use the name above all names - JESUS. I love to see them look at me when they finally "get it". Laura Rose using scissors or Jacob sounding out a word that was really "big" - it is so exciting. Do not get me wrong this is one the hardest things I have ever had to tackle - but in the last 4 years - since Jacob was in pre-k - God has shown me more ways to empty myself and fill up with HIM.
As the children's song goes..."He's still working on me, to make me what I ought to be, It took just a day to make the moon and stars, Jupiter and Mars, But He's still working on me!" ( & ya'll know He will keep working - like it or not!)
love to all - christie
