Today, the girls begin a piano and speech class. I am hopeful for what good this will bring in their lives. I realize that homeschooling is looking a lot different now that they are getting older. I am thankful for all the years that I took a relaxed approach. I am thankful for all the years of snuggling and reading. I am thankful for each daughter and how they have grown and matured and the fruit that I see in their life. As I get older and my childrens lives change, I know that those early years were so pivotal in shaping the relationships I have with each daughter.
