What Really Matters in Homeschooling, Parenting and LIFE


Listen Later

This week, we are getting back to it. So sorry for the long break, but life has been difficult for me as I have been spending the last three months grieving the loss of my darling son, Joshua who passed away on May 16th after a 16-month battle with Leukemia and my mother who suddenly died just 48 hours after Joshua. Some things will never make sense to me. 

In today’s episode Lesli and I talk about Joshua and his love of food, smiles, video games, and his puppy, Ivey. We talk about what really matters as a mom, a homeschooler and a parent. Losing a child will make you contemplate your decisions more than anything else on this earth. 

In the end, the things that matter are the time we spend with our kids, the ways we fill their cup, the memories they and you will have from the everyday moments. These things matter so much more than clean houses, first time obedience, and even learning to read before the age of five.
