O the life of a homeschooling mother is never dull
Aren’t we having a ball?
Food in the baby’s hair
Do I really care?
We burn the candle at both ends
As we keep our sanity on the mends
We go about as we cook and clean, discipline and school
Many say that we are a fool
The house is always messed
We don’t even have anyone dressed.
Many o’ hours we see being spent
Yet in the laundry we haven’t even made a dent
There are crayons, toys, and books scattered everywhere
Say something to us if you dare
Reading, writing and arithmetic, oh my
How does the time fly
Then as they grow
And their lives start to flow
We realize that this chapter is coming to a close
As we see them blossom like a rose.
What an amazing blessing we have been given
To care for and make sure they are driven
Eagerly following the path that HE has set
Carefully filling their life silhouette
Here is to everyone out there who is a mother to someone. May you find peace as your child fills their silhouette according to God’s plan.
