I have a special rose bush that one of my friends planted for me many years ago. One day I took photos of some of its blooms.
Some of them were buds, . . .
. . .others were opening just a bit, . . .
. . . some were halfway there, . . .
. . . and one was in full bloom.
And every one of those roses was exactly where it was supposed to be. No one was there asking why they weren't all exactly the same and nobody made a single rose feel inferior because it was not at the same stage as the others. Each was glowing. One was even being a helper -- it fed a moth that came to visit.
God made each of your children just right. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Children don't all bloom at the same time either.
Homeschooling gives parents the opportunity to watch each child blossom in God's time and to enjoy watching that happen.
For You created my innermost parts;
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You,
because I am awesomely and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
Psalm 139:13-14 NASB
