Reality Check

You've just met the perfect homeschool family-again! Their 17 children are well groomed, orderly and well mannered. The six year old plays Rachmanioff with ease, the oldest speaks 12 languages fluently and got a perfect 1600 on the SAT - on the first try! All the children in between dazzle you with knowledge of science and the arts. The mother bakes whole wheat bread for every meal, and serves wholesome, delicious, organic food for just $50 a month. You shrivel up inside, sure that you are an utter failure and your children are damaged for life. It's time for a reality check. (by Debbi Smith)

I laughed outloud at this excerpt from HomeSchool Enrichment. How many times I have thought the same thing, maybe not outloud or for to long, but in the back of my mind. There is NO perfect homeschool family! Sshheeww....Thats a relief!!!

Oh that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever! Duet 5:29
