I'm Christina. 30(some) year old. Wife of Hubby, mom of two lovely girls this side of heaven (M'ija is four and a half, MiSol is 20 months).
Preachers wife, Sunday school teacher, former public school teacher (Spanish: 7 years middle school, one in high school), Housewife, Stay at home
Mom, substitute teacher on the side.
Married to my high school sweetheart. Living in the middle of nowhere with some rabbits, chickens, and a small veggie garden.
I could go on and on, since everyone has many aspects of their life that describe them, but I shall move on considering that is not the full purpose of this blog post.
I'm starting this blog to share my experiences- and to record them. I know there are tons of other people with their blogs, I won't say mine will be the diamond amidst the coals, but since I have friends a few years behind me debating homeschooling I thought it might be nice to share my journey.
See, even before we had children, my husband and I felt led to homeschool them. Mind you, we were both public schooled and had no idea how to go about homeschooling. Also, we knew I would be the one to stay home, yet I was the college educated one with the higher paying job.
Five, six years ago, if you had told me my life would be what it is now and my oldest would be starting school next year, I would have told you to write a novel and sell it.
God has worked miracles to get me to where I am today. The path has not been easy, but it has been worth it. I am beyond blessed.
So, if you feel God is telling you to homeschool your children, but are uncertain of the hows and other details, then check back and read as my story unfolds.
If you are uncertain if you should homeschool, keep praying. God will make it clear.
And check back here to see how my story unfolds.
Or, just come back and read my story as I update it. Even if you don't have children, perhaps my story can encourage you. Much has happened to me that proves God works miracles even in the duly lives of the unimportant and unimpressive.
As is often stated, we never know what happens in the lives of those around us; what battles they are facing or have faced. Rarely does anyone know the whole story of someone else's life.
I will attempt to be as honest here as possible and prudent.
School starts in August, so I have to be sure to tell the back story before we deal with the chaos is homeschool kindergarden...
God bless!
