A little look back at our first year of homeschooling according to the kids. Because I want to remember their…

A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse;
from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.
Isaiah 11:1

This year I am so excited to start a Jesse Tree Advent with the kids. Every day we will dive into God’s word together and uncover God’s all consuming, always faithful, never giving up love for His people. From creation to Jesus’ birth each day we will see how God’s plan was to always, always, always rescue His people.

As the kids put these ornaments on each day in December my prayer is that God’s story of Salvation will truly come alive for them. 

“How’s homeschooling?”

It’s the question I am asked most often these days.
And to be totally honest it’s a hard one to answer.
I usually say something like:

“Oh, you know, some days are good and some are hard.”

And it’s true…. but I wish I could explain it better. I just have a really hard time putting into words what these last two months have been like. Homeschooling has definitely changed our family. In so many ways.
