It is worth it.

Life is so fast paced these days.  Lots of good things going on, but some days I feel like I'm losing it! :o)

 

Matthew is graduating from high school (home school)  this month and officially finished his first year of college this week.  On Monday he had to give an oral presentation in his English class.  His topic was "Discrimination of Christian Athletes".  He had to write a paper on it and do the oral presentation with power point.  I was so proud of him for picking a topic that could be used as a witnessing opportunity.  He stood with confidence in front of his professor and peers in a secular college classroom.  He said he could tell those that agreed with him and the ones that did not.  He has grown up so much this past year and has really learned to stand alone at work and at school.  I have seen the benefit of protecting them while they are young and impressionable, training them in the ways of the Lord and THEN letting them go out into the world to be "salt and light".  I hope that this encourages someone out there that may be trying to decide if home schooling is a good option, or maybe a young home schooling family wondering if all the hard work will be worth it.   Trust me...... I know how HARD it is!  There are days even now when I feel like I'm losing it, but it IS worth it!

And.......... What did he get on his report?  An "A"!!!
