Why I Love Homeschooling

It's nearly 9 o'clock and all my girls are together in the kitchen and dining room. Nora and Karina together made their own homemade pancakes and even cracked the eggs. :) Leona is enjoying pancakes, peas and corn in her high chair and cutely swaying to Scripture songs by Seeds Family Worship. Adela is helping Karina learn how to flip pancakes on the griddle. Karina's job is to put the chocolate chips on each pancake. Nora is happily doing some artwork. The Bible is open on the table as we are reading John 6 for our Bible study. It is true it is sometimes easy to lose perspective. When I was Adela's age, I would have already been at school over an hour and been sitting at a desk in a classroom. I'm learning that this is "school" too. Life school. And we get to do it all together. We learn how to get along, take turns, practice patience a lot, and work out a thousand other character traits. God is good and faithful and I am blessed to have four girls to raise to love and follow him. Oh, and yes, we will do some "schoolwork" after breakfast. :)
(I would post a picture, but I am technologically challenged as all the pictures are on Leo's smart phone and I can't get to them!)
