And the winner is.......

My Zach.....he passed his Math TAKS. I knew he would but, everything that I have been dealing with it just worried me. Hopefully, it will be his last Math TAKS! If I can keep my confidence going with this homeschooling.

Speaking of confidence...I need some to talk to my mom about all this. She is one that I often talk to and get advice from. She knows that I have been struggling with Zach and his school situation. My mom has her opinions on things. For example, she had a hard time with me leaving the Southern Baptist Church. Deep, deep roots run in my family in the church. My brother in law is a youth minister, grandparents started churches....you get the picture. She is really accepting my church change well. That was very hard telling her that but, I did it knowing that is what Christ was calling my family to. The whole submission to my husband and following Christ. All that to say, I had the opportunity to just let her know what my mind was thinking. I proceeded to let her know what Wade and I were thinking for the boys school. Landon in Kindergarten and pulling Zach out and letting me school him. Homeschooling is not new to our family it just has really never been discussed. My sisters kids have expressed an interest in private christian school but, they all feel that being in a small town, their dad being know as a youth minister the school is their mission field. I really understand that. Back to my mom... after my explanation of all that has been going on. She told me that we was going to do whatever we need to help Zach regardless of what anyone said. Knowing that her approval was not needed, it was a blessing that she was backing us in our decision. Don't get me wrong. my mom is the most precious and Godle lady and just the best mom that I could have been blessed with.

So, all in all both Zach and I are the winners.
