a new year

School has begun again, and all the prayers for my children have been safety pinned to their hearts as I send them off to brick and mortar schools. After homeschooling last year, I send them with trepidation and regret. Charley feels that they have missed out on lost of things by being at home but they have also all excelled academically by the more individual attention.

Please sir and ma'am, take care of these precious children. Please turn a cheek when they lash out at you in anger or make poor choices; for them it is not reasonable to expect adults to behave. For them this world has not been safe.

Love them for me...even when they try hard to make you not love them. They hardly believe in us anyway.
