Finding my way...

So I officially stay home with our child and it has been a transition that is satisfying yet nerve wrecking.  I do not have a set schedule outside of what we used to do everyday of our lives: get up, get dressed, eat breakfast and head out the door for the learning center, where I worked and my child attended.  Now days it seems that we wake up, pray, turn on theTV and eat breakfast and try to get moving a figure out our day.

I feel like I am not doing what God told me to do because I stay in my pj's a little bit longer every other day or because we may not go over letters and numbers for the day.  I know that my child is learning quality life lessons, I just have the fear of not making him the citizen he needs to be because when I was a child all we did was absorb TV most of the day before we enter kindergarten.  The battle is not so much about turning the TV off because once he is given his limit we usually get it off, but it's then turning on the switch to learn.

I have been so used to having a planned curriculum for two and three yr olds for so long that I feel like I am short changing my own preschooler.  I feel like I am on a sabbatical from the life that I am used to and I just don't want to revisit it at this time.  I pray that I can get with it! He seems happy just being able to play with the toys that used to sit untouched as we played in the game of the "Rat Race".  So here's to a happy and blessed experience at home!!!
