Picked up a book called "Mommy, Teach Me!" to read yesterday evening on a whim and I am so glad that I did. This quote has really stuck with me and so I wanted to share it with all of you.
"Throughout centuries and over a wide range of cultures, parents have been their children's primary teachers in the early years and sometimes longer. This leads me to believe that since every child has the potential to learn every parent has the potential to teach...I believe that any parent with a desire to teach can learn to do it and do it well."
I think this sums up my feelings about homeschooling perfectly. Because even without a degree in education, I am researching and reading everything I can get my hands on about child development and learning and I feel like with the Lord's guidance I am learning how to teach my children and teach them well. Even when you don't know how to do something you can always learn if you want to.
