When There are Bumps, Bruises, and Bends in the Road...

When we first began our homeschool journey, I shared here that I hoped it would turn out "with lots of love, laughter and learning along the way" and "a fair share of bumps, bruises and unforeseen bends in the road" no doubt.

If I am to be honest, many times there is more of the latter than the former, and some of those bumps, bruises and unforeseen bends have caused much pain and challenge.

It is definitely not all happy hearts and laughter here.

And, that's okay.

Our sorrows can be united with our Lord's.

Mama Mary can wrap us in her loving and protective mantle.

God will take care of what we cannot.

We can do a lot, but cannot do it all, and, when parts of life, learning, and parenting get to be more than we can handle, we can simply hand it over.

Offer it up.

Trust.

Peace can happen in the chaos.

I am praying it does for you if you're at a rough patch in your journey, too.
