We're "back to school", though truly I never felt like we had left.
For us, life is school and school is life and even a spontaneous decision to build a loft
as a team this past week fits the learning bill around here and equals "school".

Perspective.
It's been a less than traditional reentry into the 2013-2014 school year, but as I reflect, I wouldn't have it any other way.
THIS is the reason we homeschool!

To think outside the box and discover exciting ways to learn, to come together as a family and acquire more fruit of the Spirit, to go with the flow and learn flexibility, responsibility, creativity, teamwork...
these are benefits that come with homeschooling.

We're making some BIG decisions these days, some to do with adding more children to our family. We're making it work and seeking to glorify God in the process. We're choosing to see that we have room in our hearts and room in our home and God's confirmed this decision through various sources repeatedly.
We can see that He has been on the move...and thus, so have we!
So, today as we sit down with paper and pencil, I choose to enjoy the normalcy. But, never fear! I'm on the lookout for another unconventional method of knowledge-absorbing potential just around the corner. What will God teach us this year??
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."
Deuteronomy 6:4-7
