The CM road for homeschooling continually inspires me to keep teaching. I look forward to the next year, the new books we will read. I look behind with satisfaction at the depth of accomplishment (while still learning how to change and do better! We make several kinds of changes every year ~ poor oldest child really bears the brunt of forging our school path). I watch my children at present, still learning the habit of sweet, even temper (as opposed to complaining ~ they are normal children after all) and, sometimes despite themselves, connecting with books and artists and the physical world ~ connecting with their Creator.
I feel a kinship with Miss Mason and those who use her methods. It's a great journey to be on.
Charlotte Mason voices ideas that are applicable even beyond homeschooling, and I'm glad to share part of the journey with you.
