It just makes things too competitive with the kids - my son, who is 12, is ahead of his older sister in math, and I don't want to create unnatural competition, so we don't worry about grade levels. You're talkin' my language, sister! Why My Mary Kay Business Failed26 Feb 2011 11:39 PM Excellent points - if you don't feel passionate about it, don't do it. Selling isn't for everyone, and you shouldn't force yourself to do it if you hate it. Good luck with your new venture! Don't Let Housework Get In The Way Of Work26 Feb 2011 11:36 PM I've got the opposite problem - I ignore my housework to work, and then my house is totally trashed all the time. :) A Mistake in my Youth24 Feb 2011 12:18 PM I think we've all had moments where we could have been a little more forthright about our beliefs, but those moments prepare us to be more brave in the future.

No, not every minute of our lives is happy or shiny, but I think we do have, in some ways, easier lives than women who don't have the gospel. I think that's the difference the author of the original article was picking up on. We certainly don't have every answer, but we can get peace about our decisions and we have a sense of direction - not that women of other faiths don't have direction, don't get me wrong - but I think the author sensed in us something that she's missing in herself. Just my thoughts. At Odds: Teachers and Homeschooling Parents15 Nov 2010 03:15 AM Fantastic points. Thanks for this great blog!
