Spring Fever

The end of the school year is getting closer. The calendar isn't the only source that reveals that fact. The quality of my children's schoolwork is also an indicator. With the finish line in sight and carefree summer days just ahead, my children have rushed through their lessons. Half-answered history questions, and math books with high percentages of incorrect answers have confirmed that spring fever has hit our homeschool. I need to find something to motivate my children to finish the school year working to the best of their abilities.


 

    Hmmm,  I am also suffering from a time of spring fever. Being tempted to compromise my standards I halfheartedly work and slack off when it comes to maintaining study habits.  I need  self-control and discipline to finish the year, My children are looking to me to be an example of how they need to finish this year's homeschooling race. If spring fever is tempting me to be lazy and lax in disciplining my day-to-day schedule, I can't expect my kids to be much different. I need to pray and ask God to replace my lost motivation, And maintain my focus and finish strong.
