Day 181 | Best Decisions

Prompt: Tell me about one of the best decisions you have ever made.



Stephanie |  The best decision I have made is to home-school my kids. I made this decision years ago, even before I was married and had kids. I witnessed a horrible incident when my sister was just starting out in school that completely changed how I viewed the public school system. I knew right then I would not let my children experience that. I feel this is my way to keep them safe from many dangers. I will be able to stay active in their lives and know whats going on. I feel this will strengthen my relationship with my girls and help us bond and a family since we will be involved in their activities and the things they learn. Even though we do not start our home-school experience until this fall, I know this is the best decision I have made.

Annetta | (This week I will be journaling from California) One of the best decision I have made was have my mom live with me. When my parents divorced shortly after I married my mom had no real place to stay and the place she was staying wasn't working out. She needed a place to call home and my husband and I decided to provide for her. She lives with us and has since the first year of our marriage. At moments I wish that it was just my family and I, but knowing her options I am glad that she is with us and we are blessed enough to provide for her.

  1. I'm so new to art journaling and am SOOO blown away by the photos and the art. I'm a creative writing teacher by trade, so the words never fail me...the letting go and being free with the art sometimes does. Love your blog!

  2. Home schooling is a very interesting concept. Not many people tend to do it in Australia but I would definitely research it before having kids and deciding what to do with their schooling.
