Yes, I would agree, although I’m not sure how to implement that feeling into a workable plan. But, since I’m the Grandma and you’re the Mom, you do the plan and I’ll follow your lead 🙂 There does come a time in life where knowing how to sit and listen is important, not sure when that is, different for individual children and situations I’m sure. The Lord knows these things and we’ll just have to trust the Spirit to give you Moms wisdom. I know He will.

Love to you.

I was just reading an article the other day about how our school system was designed in the 1920’s to basically create more docile and obedient factory workers. Not innovators, thinkers, and doers. And I’m not bashing on a local school, but when I hear a friend tell me she wants her girl to go to their preschool to learn to “do school” – which is basically sit quietly and learn what the teacher tells you it makes me cringe. And I didn’t realize why until that article and your post here.
Yay for boys and exploring and being loud! (even if sometimes it does give me a headache!)
