Beautifully encouraging! Regarding homeschooling: as a homeschooling Mom I wonder every day if I have the correct balance between rigor vs. creativity. Too much rigor exhausts little minds squeezing out creativity. Too much creativity doesn't leave time to learn the basic disciplines (math concepts, grammar, structure...) Your Mom got it right, my prayer is that I will do the same :) Thank you, CJ!
