"Climb every mountain..."
~ from The
Sound of Music
Whether you’re a veteran homeschooler, just starting out, or somewhere in between, it’s
a good bet you’ve hit a bump in the road at least once (but probably more often). Perhaps it wasn’t just a bump,
but more like a big, ugly mountain staring you down.
Here in Washington State, a favorite peak
of local climbers is our beautiful Mount Rainier. It's gorgeous as it rises above other hills to glisten in the sun. Many
people love to ski, board, or hike on its lower slopes, but braver souls dare to conquer the top by climbing. No
climber, though, would attempt such a feat alone. Reaching for that pinnacle with a partner or group has saved the life of many
an adventurer.
In the same way, homeschoolers need to group together to offer moral support and encouragement. Often,
it's the only we make it to the top. It's true: there is strength in numbers.
Now...what mountain
can we tackle together today?
