It's just an extension of the naptimes they used to take as babies. For about an hour & 1/2 to 2 hours every day, we take a break from each other & recharge for the rest of the day. I take a nap or read or email and they all go to their rooms for some quiet time. Either that or they go to separate couches & watch a movie quietly.<BR/><BR/>I figure there isn't much time in life to slow down & rest so we do it when we're all at home. And boy am I glad for our daily quiet time!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01606570803094936934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8698897522593239375.post-18917984459705891532008-06-26T06:04:00.000-07:002008-06-26T06:04:00.000-07:00Honestly, one of the biggest lessons I have learne...Honestly, one of the biggest lessons I have learned homeschooling has been the extent to which I am ruled by my own selfishness, which then leads to recognizing God's mercy and grace in whole new way. He is good! Then, we have to teach our kids to put aside their own selfish desires and choose to love each other instead. For the faint of heart? The weak? I think not!! Put on the full armour, stand firm and love!!! Whew, I am tired already. :)Kalenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654828297922271848noreply@blogger.com
