I found a sister blog today, HavingEnough. She’s a mom and a writer. She’s not a homeschooler (although she’s considering it), she brings up universal ideas of having and doing “enough”. I was happily surprised by how similar our messages are, just in different context.
Here are some gems:
“More is essentially good. Except when it’s already enough.”
and in another post she says…
“I know I can’t avoid it all, but I can at least try to find educational settings where there is an awareness of these issues and a true desire to lessen their impact. What I can do: not overschedule her (I’m already boycotting all the baby classes!), not give into the consumer crazies, be aware, not push her to “achieve,” but rather show a love of learning for its own sake in our home. Still, it takes a village and all that.”
