Episode Synopsis

Advent has flown by; a daily mix of the reality of our present, broken world, gloriously interrupted by generous rays of light reminding us that we are indeed living in the tension of the now and the not yet. We’ve had some fabulous outings, enjoyed meeting up with friends, thrown ourselves into Christmas crafting and cooking and taken time out to sit and read aloud together. There are many things we’ve not done but we are celebrating our wins.

So, dear home educating friends, how are you at the end of this year? Whatever your circumstances and however you may be feeling, please know you are daily doing an extraordinary thing, teaching and parenting your children. Together, we are raising up the foundations of the next generation. Amidst the excitement and celebrations, the mess and mayhem, we hope you can find some time to sit quietly and in a very un-British way, accept the praise and affirmation due you, for a job well done. This mini podcast episode comes with our love and encouragement. May our celebrations, though imperfect, be filled with laughter and smiles.
