Why I Homeschool

Today T- said to me, "Mom, do you remember the boy I was in third grade?"

I hesitated to comment not knowing where he was going.

"Yes," I noncommitedly replied.

"I am so proud of the boy I am now. I have learned so much about so many things."

My seventh grader Paul (who has been homeschooling for a month now) agreed and added,
"Thanks mom."

This makes me wonder how different I'd be if I'd have been home schooled.

"Let us review some of these less-conspicuous gifts: the gift of asking; the gift of listening; the gift of hearing and using a still, small voice; the gift of being able to weep; the gift of avoiding contention; the gift of being agreeable; the gift of avoiding vain repetition; the gift of seeking that which is righteous; the gift of not passing judgment; the gift of looking to God for guidance; the gift of being a disciple; the gift of caring for others; the gift of being able to ponder; the gift of offering prayer; the gift of bearing a mighty testimony; and the gift of receiving the Holy Ghost.

"We must remember that to every man is given a gift by the Spirit of God. It is our right and responsibility to accept our gifts and to share them. God’s gifts and powers are available to all of us."
