Just wanted to give you some encourageme...Hi there,<br />Just wanted to give you some encouragement on your homeschooling and having a baby at 40. We started homeschooling our oldest after he had a hard year in kindergarten. Just wasn't learning like the others. We had him tested and they said he would get behind in first grade and then they would help him. This didn't make sense to us. But what to do... One friend suggested homeschooling, but how was I to help him, I am NOT a teacher, and he needed special help. The NEXT day, another friend suggested I homeschool, and God turned a light on in my head and it made perfect sense. And so we began. And it has been the BEST thing ever for that son and all the kids after him. It is our way of life and we love it. We will be starting our 10th year this fall. And that son is truly a good student and was never labeled in school, so doesn't know that he was just poky at the start. <br />The day after my 40th birthday, I found out I was pregnant with baby number 6! I was pretty sure I was, but didn't want to find out before my birthday. He is a healthy 10 month old and we couldn't imagine our life without him!<br />If God is in it, no matter what, it will be best for you and your family!<br />Sorry this is long, but I wanted to share a bit about us to encourage you.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13865232366959284201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231571105328335722.post-48310880005376054952009-06-08T08:54:46.364-05:002009-06-08T08:54:46.364-05:00Crying here!

Now I feel compelled to express how much I identify with you. My second child was 6 when we found out I was pregnant again. This was our first year of homeschooling, the last few weeks with a newborn. Interesting to say the least. I remember feeling very overwhelmed at the onset of this homeschooling year, wishing I knew someone who was walking the same path...so if you get overwhelmed remember you're not alone! God's grace is indeed enough- even when I am in tears at my insufficiency! His blessings on you and your family and you all prepare for the adjustments to come. You will love watching what homeschooling can do to improve your kids' relationships with each other and with the Lord. I have enjoyed that so much.Corriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808230354566529560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231571105328335722.post-80280657675167979822009-06-04T09:00:25.415-05:002009-06-04T09:00:25.415-05:00Ummmm...
