You’re definitely not alone Vanessa. I read something the other day that said something like this: ‘If you have 40% to give and you give 40%, you actually gave 100% of yourself’ and that was helpful to hear. Big hugs are sent your way.

Oh Sarah…I send you hugs and my love. I know so well what homeschooling with chronic pain can look like and that mind-battle that you mentioned too. I’m sure you’re doing your very best and that IS enough. I am so glad to know my sharing helps you in some small way. I really get it Mama. All my love x

I also have chronic illness and I struggle a lot with guilt over whether perhaps my children would be better off in public school than dealing with me, especially when I am having a flare up in my pain. But I am hopeful that it is teaching them valuable lessons about self care, patience, and grace, and that learning happens even when it is not planned. Your posts are always a welcome hand to pull me out of my guilt spiral and keep following my homeschool heart.
