I know I have been neglecting this blog and it is such a tragedy! I have so much to be grateful for, but am often too exhausted (or lazy) to post.
I am so grateful to live in a country and a state that allows me to homeschool my children. Not only homeschool them, but educate them how I see fit, with no one able to dictate what and how I teach. How blessed I am to live in my comfortable home, with healthy, beautiful children. How blessed I am to have a knowledge of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, to feel of his love and power in all the creations that I am surrounded by.
And as my children scream and tromp all over the house, practically tearing the walls right down around me, causing my blood pressure to rise and rise, while they could be in school and I could be snuggled up in my warm bed with a book, I keep repeating these words in my head: I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed.
