Comforting Homeschool Quotes and Scripture When You Need It

We have all had those days, right? The days when you just can’t do it anymore, it would be easier to pack them up and send them to public school. Or you threaten to send them back and have terrible mom guilt afterward.

We have all either done it, thought about it, or know of another mom who has. Keep these homeschool quotes and scripture to stay encouraged when you need them!

It’s funny when we look back on it, but the desperation is real when you are in the moment. We feel like we are failing in some capacity, and it would be easier to send our children elsewhere. But we know that just isn’t right, and there is no better teacher than you, momma.

Here is what we need to hear when we feel like giving up on our homeschools!
