As you begin homeschooling, there are a host of questions that may be in the back of your mind: Can I really do this? Can I really teach my child what he needs to know and give him a proper education? Can I find the balance between being a mom and a teacher? Can I keep up with all my other responsibilities?

“My son, do not lose sight of these— keep sound wisdom and discretion, and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck. Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble. If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.” Proverbs 3:21-23....

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. -Psalm 139:14 (NIV) God made women special. We are the help meet.

Praising Effort
Posted by AmyStults | 0 comments
One of my premier goals as a home educator is to have my son do more than just finish the task set before him. Although diligence is a noble quality, it can be very easy to fall into the check-the-box mode. You know, where you have such a big list of things to do and assignments to complete, you lose sight of the big...

Learning to swim in college was a true leap into overcoming fear. My lack of knowledge and experience kept me trembling on the pool side, but it also fueled my determination to face my fears and accomplish this skill. I found that while I was moving, learning the strokes and kicking, it was easy to stay afloat and have fun....

I admit it. I wish away certain moments and stages in my children’s lives. I guess I don’t know anyone who doesn’t occasionally do this, but I know many older women who tell me not to. From their perspective, it’s clear that the moments and stages will pass quickly; from mine it often feels like an...
A Simple Walk

The sky begins to lighten, though the sun has not yet breached the horizon. I look out the window toward the chicken coop, wonder how much they care about having their coop opened up when there’s still snow on the ground, think about sinking back into the comforter and enjoying the warmth. Mattias is standing in his...
1 Corinthians 13 for Homeschool Moms
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and teach my children Latin conjugations, Chinese and Portuguese, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal, and no matter what I say, they will not hear me. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know my children’s bents and God’s plan for their...
