Frankly, I'm aiming for quality, not quantity, which is what I find most institutional schools are focused on. Get 'em in. Get 'em out.<BR/><BR/>This reminds me of another analogy I heard a while back. We don't need someone in the bedroom telling us how to reproduce. We're pretty good at figuring out the act which results in children. Just as God made my body to form and birth a child, he also made me capable of raising the child he blessed me with, and that raising doesn't stop at a particular point or only apply to specific tasks and not others.<BR/><BR/>Of course, just as some women are unable to conceive or birth naturally, so, some families are unable to homeschool, which is why I am thankful there are other options out there.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I suppose that analogy may be a bit off the wall as well, but it created a huge line of thought for me in trusting God, just as I trusted him to form the baby in my womb, to guide me in teaching my child.MandyMom.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14259605619391239854noreply@blogger.com
