It Happened....

Chelsea,
 who graduated last May 
and who has been working 
on her music and enjoying
her new job,
came to me and said,

"I feel like I should be 
reading substantial books.
I want to keep learning."

Oh yeah!!

That is the fruit 
of years of introducing 
a love for learning.

Home Educators....
keep at it.

Even on those days when 
they are resistant.
When they tell you they aren't
"getting it".
They are getting something.
Most importantly a deep 
dependence on learning.
A desire to know more.
They are getting discipline.
It is so good.

Chelsea has been studying her
Bible this year....
intentionally.
Of her own doing.

These are the things that we parents
would love to "make happen"
but have to wait to see come to 
fruition.

What joy it brings
when it happens.

Want to share your 
joys?

I'd love to hear them.

Are you struggling right now?
Hang in there and share that too.
Others have walked those paths
and can share encouragements with you.
