Keep It Simple!
Don't overcomplicate your homeschooling, your schedule, or your daily routines. Focus on the basics: Reading, Writing, Math, Relationships, & God's Word. Trust the process! Your children will learn the rest. God created us to learn. Our job is to spread a beautiful feast for our children to think on (Phil 4:8).
