Vision...

We returned from our third day of home school activities. As always it was a fulfilling experience. Seeing people is by far my favorite part of the convention and catching up with friends and meeting new ones. It is also encouraging to see the many new home schoolers with young children just starting the journey. They have a vision of the future for their children and are pursuing this vision by coming to the convention before their children have even entered school age. I am reminded of our home school journey that began 14 years ago when we made the decision to home school Jordan, she was our only child then, three years old. The vision we had then changed over time and now we are near finishing our journey with her. Yet, if you think of the vision, the journey isn't nearly over yet. We do not get to the end of high school and say, "There! We are done! We've done our job and we have no more to do."

Jordan just came to me and is telling me about the purity conference she attended today and says (she did not read my blog post) "She told us about vision; if you don't know what your looking for, you won't know when you find it." I find this funny that she said vision when I was writing about it.

At www.kevinswanson.com you can find more about vision. He was the speaker of the convention and was dynamic, incredible and full of truth, love for the Lord and he has a vision for the future of our country and a future for our children. He has a heart for turning fathers back to their children and putting families back together.

By the way, Kevin is doing well after his surgery yesterday. He was in a lot of pain yesterday and is doing better today. He is supposed to lay down for two days but he finds it hard to do it. It also causes pain for his arm to be flat. It is better to stand up with his arm against his chest. He keeps on cleaning, picking up Lena, helping, etc. I can't get him to stop!
