Dear THSC Friend,
Sometimes as a homeschool parent, it can be hard to remember to do something for yourself once in a while... especially looking back at Mother's Day being last weekend!
And, I mean that not in a selfish ME FIRST way, but in a step back and Remember Who You Truly Are kind of way.
As I'm writing this letter to you, it is about to be my thirty-something-th birthday.
On that particular day, we will have Latin class in the morning, and then homeschool choir dress rehearsal for a few hours, followed by the concert that night, along with 200+ other homeschool kids! Not exactly a day at the spa!
However, I can rejoice in my children's gifts and be thankful that I am here to encourage them.
Later, when there's a small opening of quiet, I'm going to "recalibrate my heart" (source) back to focusing on who I am in Christ myself - not just "Me the Mom."
There are several ways that you can sneak off and take care of yourself, while still feeling like you're accomplishing something(!) - because if you're like me, not feeling like you're wasting time is important.
