Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
What does Independence Day mean to you? Since I was raised with a background of military service, I have high regard for what it took for our country to be a free country. I am thankful to live in the land of the free and the home of the brave. I love that I have the freedom to homeschool my children, and I am thankful for my religious freedom to worship God. I am thankful for all of those who gave their lives so that I might live in a free country. I am thankful for those who have risked their lives protecting my freedoms.
Another way I have found freedom is in how I care for my home and family. I look at it as a blessing.I am free from the chains of bondage to keeping my house perfect. I have learned that working in small, consistent steps helps keep my home clean.
