Authenticly, Really, Good

I have been thinking about homeschooling.. or really just living. Parenting, learning, etc.

It is so easy to see all the things we think we are doing wrong, or more accurately the things we think we should be doing but we arent. Or see the things our dc are not doing, instead of what they are.

That is easy to do when we see so many other dc doing so many great things.

But, I have been noticing, especially with my oldest son about to turn 16 (in 4 days), how he is becoming the person God meant for him to be. I see it in my 12 yos, too.

They are doing so much, in their way. And I think because I have looked at what is real and authentic, it has allowed them to become that way even more. Not that things are perfect here, nothing is perfect, but I did want to allow myself that things are right. All is right with the world.

Sometimes I think we just need to allow ourselves that. Quit looking for all that is wrong, but enjoy the blessings God gave us. Time is too short.

Things are good and we are doing a good job.
