The ground guzzles the water as I douse our recently planted trees.
Puddles slowly gather at the base of each sapling. My mind drifts.
'It takes time for these things to grow. A little water every day. Sunshine. Good soil. We can't expect fruit for a few more years.'
And it hits me: Education is much the same way. Regular exposure. Time. Good materials. And it takes a while for the fruit of our labor to show up.
Watered Trees
So, hang in there.
What leaves, buds, flowers, or fruit have you seen in your homeschool recently?
