"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. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates"
Deuteronomy 6:5-9
This is what I want for my kids. I am in no way knocking people who have their kids in in school...this is just about me and my family. I know what God wants for us and homeschooling is right for us! I am so thankful to be able to stay home and teach our children and get to watch their learning unfold daily.
"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."
Proverbs 22:6
I have heard Paige sing those words in the car and they never made as much sense to me until this week when we started school. She watches us constantly and we are her examples and her "teachers" of Christ. What we teach her about Him will stick with her forever! That's HUGE! I think of the examples that I had from my own parents and even though I didn't always make the right choices, they had instilled those morals in me and I found my way back to Christ because of what I was taught. We are not only teaching Paige about Christ, we are learning more about Him every day! We are all so excited for this new adventure for our family. God has blessed us in so many ways!
