Homeschooling has primarily been a lesson for me in persevering. Persevering in teaching through winter doldrums, my husband's accounting exams, a trying pregnancy, a new baby... the list goes on.
My temptation is to not try at all if it cannot be done just as I had envisioned. A perfectionism that incapacitates me instead of driving me onward.
Knowing this about myself, I was very concerned about our homeschooling success with a new baby's schedule to contend with.
These past few months has revealed something else about myself that I had long left behind in my university memories - I thrive under a little pressure. This was again realized in our homeschool: Teddy is asleep? Quick let's do math. Mama needs a nap in the afternoon? Better get it done this morning.
Theodore's arrival has brought a renewed sense of confidence in our homeschool journey thus far. With God's grace I am able to persevere in teaching my children at home.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. -- Ephesians 2:10
