This has been quite a year. In Oct. I experienced some pretty serious health problems and have not been as active on Facebook since then. I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and feeling a little bit better. I plan on sharing a bit of my journey when the time is right.
How many of you have had health problems while homeschooling? It's HARD! It's hard to find the motivation to keep going each day when you don't feel good or got no sleep and it's hard to feel positive. It's hard to know what you can say to your kids and what you shouldn't say so not to scare them. I've learned a ton since Oct. and I'm still learning and through it all I'm learning to be grateful. I love my family and I'm savoring every minute I have with my kiddos.
I just wanted to encourage you because I know we all have things we are working on or trials we might be going through...especially right now. The decision you've made to homeschool your kids is the best decision you could ever make in the life of your family. No matter how hard life gets homeschooling brings your family together and connects you to one another.
If you are going through a challenging time like me, I wanted to share a tip...I highly recommend journaling and get off the internet. Us homeschooling moms love to research, but sometimes it can actually harm the healing process. I've tried to stop researching "Dr. Google" for answers and instead I've been going to my faithful journal and just start writing my thoughts. It has helped bring peace in this very uncertain time. I may not have all the answers, but I feel a lot more calm and peaceful. Sometimes the internet is not the best place to go for answers.
If any of you need to talk or need some encouragement, please don't hesitate to message me.
