I don’t often circle back around to my own blog posts. I figure I’ve said my piece and I, along with my life, have moved on. But after reading THIS<\/a> little gem today, I decided I had to revisit my previous post lamenting my lack of order amid the chaos<\/a> of our homeschool days when “interruptions” come to call.\u00a0 So while I can’t take credit for the unraveling of these truths, it was too valuable to my journey here not to re-post. I often find exactly what I need to read on this particular blog, so I try to visit it at least once a week to see what’s new. I’ve included a link for anyone else who’d like to check it out and add it to their reading rotation.<\/p>\n

For anyone else struggling to find order in the chaos, I suggest copying and posting this C.S. Lewis quote someplace highly visible – or at least someplace you’ll see it when the roof seems to be caving in on your plans . . .<\/p>\n

\u201cThe great thing, if one can, is to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions of one\u2019s \u201cown\u201d or \u201creal\u201d life. The truth is of course that what one calls the interruptions are precisely one\u2019s real life \u2014 the life God is sending one day by day; what one calls one\u2019s \u201creal life\u201d is a phantom of one\u2019s own imagination.\u201d <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
