This month I made a strong effort NOT to get sucked in to all the home-school planning that is taking place. I am a planner by nature, but I found in the past planning can be consuming and doesn't really work out well for our family. So this August while other homeschooling mamas are crazy planning, buying, and scheduling, I am maintaining our summer routine. We take trips to the river, slide at the water park, hike the foothills, and camp remotely as a family. We read, play games and picnic along the way.
Being present in this season is the goal. I am enjoying this time of creating memories and strengthening bonds with my family. I will admit I do hold one plan for the upcoming fall season.
Remaining FEARLESS in my role as wife and mom.
Some people choose a word for the year each January. I like to choose a word, verse, and/or mantra each fall after finding peace and calm during the summer.
Fearless
2 Timothy 1:7
The Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.
