Christendom's Homeschool Visit Day is coming up, and their Director of Admissions, Sam Phillips, has some info for our families!

As Catholic Christians, we all share in the universal vocation to evangelize and witness to the Truth. For us as parents - and educators, too - our unique contribution to that task of evangelization lies in the formation of the children in our charge – not only by our own witness, but by both the information we impart, and the intellectual formation we give them.

When I first started homeschooling I had this vision of what it would be like in my home every day. Serenity was king. Peacefulness reigned. My kids running through a field of daisies like Little House on the Prairie. All of us sitting down quietly on a rainy day to read out loud. The house was always clean, all food homegrown and homemade. I was always calm, that picture of perfect motherhood where all I existed to do was be patient with my children no matter what they did. Well, that vision quickly died a violent death, especially as boys started entering our household.
