"You are as much serving God in looking after your own children, and training them up in God's fear, and minding the house, and making your household a church for God, as you would be if you had been called to lead an army to battle for the Lord of hosts."
~Charles Spurgeon

Can't wait!!

So soon?!

***sigh***

Today, during school, the children sat down and I helped get their school work together. Our school desks are gone now so we end up on the sofa, floor, dining table...anywhere (ahhh...the beauty of homeschooling). I tended to each child and gave them an explanation of what they needed to accomplish today. When I got to our Sunshine, I had to pause. I realized that she'll be in Kindergarten this September!

***sigh***

My heart sank. I realized that all our children will be in school. Can this really be happening? I knew this day would come but so soon??

***sigh***

Psalm 116: 1-9

I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.

Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came upon me;
I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.

Then I called on the name of the LORD :
"O LORD, save me!"

The LORD is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.

The LORD protects the simplehearted;
when I was in great need, he saved me.

Be at rest once more, O my soul,
for the LORD has been good to you.

For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,

that I may walk before the LORD
in the land of the living.
