Shepherding a Child's Heart (Part 5) | Ep. 109
Manage episode 372244333 series 2849637
Listen in on our conversation as we reminisce on our unique parenting journey, inspired significantly by the homeschooling success of our dear friend. We talk about our decision to shun daycare and provide a home-based education, actively seeking out a homeschool curriculum, and becoming integral parts of our children's upbringing.
Growing up with a strict disciplinarian mother and an absent father, I, Patricia, found myself becoming more reserved and practical. On this parenting journey, with my husband's unwavering support, while raising our children I've had to redefine my parenting style. I learned how to confront and handle my insecurities, how to re-evaluate my responses in real time, and how my father's absence inspired me to be more involved, all adding up to a more secure home environment.
Raising three distinct individuals is no small feat! We chat about the challenges and joys of bonding over sports and electronics and the profound effect of a mother's discipline and transparency. We also share our belief in the vital role of a shared spiritual foundation in marriage and our aspiration to reflect God's heart to others.
Join us for this heartwarming and enlightening conversation about faith, parenting, and homeschooling.
