So, for now, I reamain in fervent prayer, seeking God's direction in this most important aspect of our life. We had talked about homeschooling this year but decided that it wasn't time but looking back, I think we should have. NayNay will be in the 4 day 4's program at his Christian Pre-School next year, so he's good for now. Niblet will be in 2 nd Grade next year and I'm considering keeeping him in public school while I cut my teeth on B and then pulling him out and keepig him home for 3rd. So, I would be starting in his 4 th grade year. I hate it that he has even been exposed to these things and although I can't take it away, I can keep it from progressing. He doesn't like it but you know what they say: You can't un-ring a bell. B is in 3rd grade this year and the things he is hearing at school can be defined in no other way than deviant.
It is my greatest desire for my boys to have a heart for the Lord and to grow to be godly men but the world has other plans. I know "I" want to homeschool but need to make sure HE wants me to. Now, the reason for the opening scripture is to represent my desire to seek God's will for this venture. Meaning that if He puts His stamp on it and if I do my part, I can rock at this!! Not to mention that I have a ton of girlfriends that homeschool and that wonderful little resource called the Internet. See, the awesome thing is, the Lord tells us in Isaiah 55:8 (and I paraphrase) that His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are above our thoughts. So, how in the world could I possibly homeschool? Fast forward 9 years. And on top of that, I choose not to take medication for it. There's a psychiatrist that has a folder with my name on it and he told me that he has only ever seen one person that had it worse than me. I couldn't even answer her for laughing!! Me? Homeschool? I have to use spell check a dozen times every time I send an e-mail, I'm more OCD than the average bear and have a scorching case of ADD. When our youngest was barely walking, my mom asked me if I had ever considered homeschooling, which was funny to me because I didn't even know she knew what it was.
