On your mark
get set
STOP.

Stop buying {more} curriculum.
Stop trying to keep up with other homeschooling moms.
Stop comparing your kids with other kids.
Stop wishing your days were easier.
Stop wasting so much time on the computer.

Start
recognizing the giftedness your children possess.
embracing the blessing God has given.
praying over your children every morning.
believing that less is more.
Start homeschooling . . . on purpose.
Thank you!

This is exactly where I am right now! It’s time to stop searching and shopping for the “perfect” curriculum and get down to the business of creating an atomosphere of creative learning in my home. We are in the midst of super simplifying…………….and I am loving it!

So I’m not the only one! I need to simplify things, stop looking at what others call the ‘best curriculum’ and coveting new books which are always popping up. And stop over-thinking, so I can hear God more clearly when it comes to home ed. choices.
Thanks

Wow, did the Lord tell you my thoughts? Note to self is exactly what I needed to see. I have printed it and framed it for my desk.
Thanks so much~

Haha! I found this post so funny. I suddenly thought of the things that I need to stop. I think I have to shout at myself to stop what I have to.
