not expected

i made it to the temple yesterday morning, and i'm so glad that i did.

i went looking for more guidance on some revelation i was given a few weeks ago, and found something completely different!
i did get an answer for that revelation, but it was, "you already got your answer, now get to work." .....um, yes, sir.

we've been struggling with school. the kids keep saying that everything is boring. i keep having to fight them on getting things done. they don't enjoy it as much as they should be, and we are all frustrated. i DO like the new school. it's less repetition for them, and more work for me ( i know that sounds backwards). because i have to go through and make lesson plans, i know what they are learning. i know what i want them to be aware of, but not take to heart.

i ran into an old friend in the dressing room at the temple. she introduced me to a lovely lady that homeschooled her kids. we talked for an hour (in fact, ashley was late to school because of it.). but, she reinforced some things that i had been thinking about and struggling with anyways. she also gave me some great resources, and places to go.

as a result of our conversation, i am overhauling our schooling!
