Lauren who writes at ServingfromHome.com is summarizing and sharing on Chapter 16.  I love reading Lauren's blog.  She always has amazing and encouraging insights into scripture, life, homemaking, and homeschooling.  Her thoughts on this chapter of Educating the WholeHearted Child are no different!

In the words of Sally and Clay: “This chapter is about one thing – subduing your home to create the kind of structure and patterns that will allow you to effectively stay on the path to realizing those larger goals. It's about defining the purposes, priorities, plans, and principles that will get you where you want to go. The path is there; it's up to you how you walk it with your family.”

Everyone gets tooting on the horn about how important it is to have goals, set goals, follow goals. Little is accomplished without some kind of a plan or at least a shadow of a goal in your mind. But how does that play out in an incredibly busy homeschool household where your days flash by faster than you can think, and before you know it, another semester is finished, and you're still discouraged and unsure what direction you're taking, or even what (if anything) you are accomplishing with your children.
