Thanks for the reminder Terry Buckel Ervin But when my newer homeschooling friends lean their heads near mine, eyes full, and murmur that this homeschooling thing is hard, I stare straight back and nod. I say, “You are right. It is.” Why do I say that and what do I mean? What do any of us mean when we use this phrase? We mean that parenting kids is difficult, that this much contact with [spoiler alert] imperfect children wears on the soul sometimes. And this is because we are also imperfect. We get tired, we can be selfish grown-ups—on the inside, even if we’re serving peanut butter and jelly sandwiches without grumbling.
