school, at home

Overwhelmed.

That's a good word to describe a new homeschooling mama. And that's me. So far, as soon as I feel like I've caught a break, I realize it's because I've forgotten something. Too many plates in the air. Too many books and workbooks on the table. Too much. Too much.

Pray for me, just like I'm praying for the mama of the son who will marry my daughter one day. And the mom of the little girl who will walk down the aisle looking at my baby, her new husband. I'm praying those mamas are not as overwhelmed as me. That they are well rested, and able to pour into their children's hearts the way I am trying to pour into mine.

Life is hard. But I'm blessed. Thank God it's Fall Break!

Here's what homeschooling looked like in my house yesterday.

Because life is better with a friend by your side.
