I am truly privileged to be raising three little girls, one age 12, age 9, and almost 2. Life as a homeschool Mom for 12 years has come with it’s challenges, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. We have stuck with it through thick and thin, and have come out on the other side with a stronger faith in God’s supernatural power to save. Sickness, ADD, ADHD, and the emotional turmoils that come with that, such as marriage troubles, would have destroyed us if it weren’t for our faith. As someone who didn’t return to the work force after having babies, even though I couldn’t imagine leaving my babies when they were still so tiny and in need of mommy nurturing, it was a drastic change from the rewarding busy office work as a corporate travel agent. As I reflect on how I was able to experience almost every moment of their development, from nursing, potty training, to learning to read and write, I have to give myself a pat on the back.
Beautiful moments that are tucked inside my subconscious mind; memories that are irreplaceable; mistakes that I have learned from, and revelations of ways of parenting with the Savior’s gentle love which I had never learned or experienced before.
Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV) “Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.”
