School

After many months of going back and forth, prayer, consideration, and reaching deep down, the decision has made that starting February 22nd, three of our children, Parker, Ally, and Jaxson will be going to a private, Christian missionary school her in Peru. There are 25-30 kids in the entire school, and the average class size is 2-4 kids and I know most of the mothers and children that attend there. It is a wonderful place and my kids have many friends from this school. Our children will be enrolled there until June. In August, we will arrive in America and at that time I will homeschool them through December with the curriculum that the school gives me to carry to America. Next January, we will once again reevaluate where we are at in life, how we are doing, and decide what is best for our children and family at "that" time. With this sojourner life that we live, we have decided that we cannot have "absolutes" except for the Word of God. So for this moment of our lives, they will be in school and who knows what the rest of their schooling years will look like, except for God.

Parker will be in 4th Grade, Ally 2nd and Jaxson 1st.

Praying for you. I know this is probably hard for you, but good to see you trusting in the Lord and doing what is best for your family :) Blessings!

This sounds like it may be a good choice for this season. I'm glad you are learning not to live in the "absolutes" and are willing to seek God in even this very personal area of life. I pray that you and the kids will see in the coming weeks that this is what God has in mind for now. That you will rest in it and figure out your role as a mom of school children! God is big and works at home and at school! Nice how they will work with you while on furlough!
