I love running into veteran homeschoolers! People in general are pretty nice when they ask (and they always do!) "What grade are you in? Where do you go to school?" Some are even sweet, saying "bless your heart momma!" or "good for you, I could never do that!" (like it's not overwhelming for me! Ha!)
But homeschoolers who have been there and done that are SO encouraging! I met one today while waiting for my bountiful basket. She said something that brought me to the verge of tears right there in line.. "You will never regret homeschooling your kids. No matter how much they learn, or how hard it is to teach each one individually, or how endless the days may seem.. You will never regret that YOU were the one to spend that time with them, and that you were there to see the light bulbs turn on. No one can take that from you."
Wow! (Sob!) It was like she had a message sent especially for me, here as we struggle to "find our groove." Thank You Lord, for Your encouragement :-)
