How? is the question I get asked so often when it comes to my life.
How do you homeschool that many kiddos?
How do you work from home?
How do you do both?
I pretty much have two words to sum up the answer to all of those questions..........God and Organization.
First, I feel like God has ordained my life exactly the way He wants it. Who can argue with that! He has opened the doors for me to be able to be home to raise and educate my children. He has blessed our business with abundance and He has allowed me the opportunity to start a new business that has been such a great blessing to me and my family.
Second, organization! This is key to everything I do. Does this mean that my home runs like a well oiled macine with everything in it's place and perfet. NOPE! Many times in my world chaotic organization is the best kind. But it is organization none the less.
Running two business from home and homeschooling five kiddos plus regular "life" duties seem overwhleming from the outside but simply put.....its my life so I make it work. When I look at Mom's that work outside the home and kids who go to public school, then rush home for a quick meal before they are back out the door for any extra curricular activities, I get overwhelmed! THEIR life looks difficult to ME.
God places us in the life He wants us in, and equips us with everything we need to accomplish it well. As moms I believe we too often look at others lives and judge based upon our own. we need to STOP that.....but that is another post! But seriosuly, the grass is not greener in someone else's yard.....they simply learned how to use a hose to maximize what they have. Turn the water on dear sister!
