When I started homeschooling my kids, I had big dreams that vanished the moment real life happened.
I battled guilt because my homeschool life looked so different than the softly lit, studious homeschool rooms on Instagram.
But I discovered when I asked "Am I doing enough?" or "What if I fall behind?" those questions never, ever helped me feel better or solve the challenges we faced.
I realized that School Culture makes learning a race, like Lucy in the chocolate factory...but my home doesn't have to be a factory!
I prayed and I started asking better, more helpful questions. These questions pointed me to the truth instead of more shame and misery. They made me curious instead of judgmental toward myself and my kids. And they lifted my gaze to the One who can help instead of looking inward.
You can start asking better questions and find homeschool confidence today.
