I didn't decide to homeschool because I was Mother Teresa.?I decided to homeschool because it's what was right for my kids and for our family, and I developed?the patience to make it work.?Being with them each day was what made it possible.?If I'd waited until I was patient enough and?then?started homeschooling, it would never have happened. I had to take that first step, trust in the process, and allow it to shape me into who I needed to be. ~ 2.15.10
