And you know what parent, it’s OK that you struggle, too!
This past week I (Mikaela) wanted to give up on homeschooling about 10 times within 2 days! When I finally went to prayer, all I heard from the Lord was, “I wish you could see how much grace I give you.”
I forget that it’s OK that this is all hard for me, as well. Right now, we have a son who is severely struggling with phonics. Watching him, I wish he could see that it’s OK! If he would just relax and keep trying (and stop looking at his classmates who are ahead), it will click! I wonder if this is how the father sees us as parents on our hard days? Just keep trying. Don’t worry about other’s progress (or your perception of their progress) and eventually, you’ll get there!
It’s easier said than done. But it’s the only way to grow! Does anyone else need a little extra grace for yourself or your kids this week?
