Meet the tribe!!

Hello, my name is Qetsiyah but everyone calls me Que. Welcome to my humbly inspired blog. I truly believe that there’s nothing about me that is very interesting. I am just a woman with a lot of children and a lot to say. I have my Doctorate in family counseling and have had the pleasure of working in foster care for many years, God has also blessed me to have the opportunity to teach.  So a little about myself,  may ask.why I don't use the title Dr. which I have worked very hard to get. Well I use to, my title was what I used to open doors and make ways for myself, God showed me other wise and now only business associate's and close friends know that by degree I am a Doctor.  So more about me and my crazy life I have been blessed to live,  I have 11 children 6 boys 5 girls, my children range in ages from 5/ 28. I have been homeschooling for the past 22 years. So that you’ll know the tribe let me introduce them to you. Mawshal 28 Qadash 27 Bethsheba 26 Thamar 25 Aaron 25 Eliyah 18 Zachariyah 14 Yesheyahu 12 (Yeshe) Aniyah 8 Shemayah 7 (Shem) Amaziyah 5(Ami) .

At its best, getting kids to do things that are challenging for them will teach them grit and flexibility while also widening their world view — whether it’s participating in sports, trying out for a new class or engaging in a new social situation.  But at its worst, pushing children too far can cause them to retreat inward, become resentful or develop even greater anxiety and prolonged fear a

My struggling Reader!

So I've taken full ownership of my struggle (as I am sure many of you have), I wear it like a badge of shame a ugly cape for a very unsuccessful super hero.  I believe it is my fault that my daughter is not reading yet that at 8 she is not a strong reader.  I truly believe that there must have been something I could have done to help her get it better,  I go back and forth with the fact that maybe if she was in school with a real teacher helping her she would be a strong reader by now,,, I read somewhere the other day that "Struggle" shows that something is going on....Me being me I went and looked up the word struggle with new eyes..

So I've come to understand that what this word means for me is that I'm not growing comfortable, that good enough is not enough for me.  That I am moving forward....  I am going to let up on myself and understand that eventually she will
