First Day of Homeschooling~Nearing the Finish Line
We started on this journey 17 years ago, pretty much with no clue what we were doing. Hubby and I were both public school graduates, who leaped, both feet first, into the world of homeschooling with our five children. The three oldest had a year or two under their belt, the youngest two never stepped inside a school building. It was hard, wonderful, scary and fulfilling all at the same time. I know that is one my greatest achievements here on this earth. The first day of school picture looks very different this year. Just him and I. My baby (not so much). Things change as they get older, learning to read and write is taken over by career goals and job searches. Making sure they can balance a checkbook, do laundry, and boil water for food (the struggle is real 😊😊) I find myself missing the days of reading out loud as all six of us pile on the couch in the afternoon. But as I see our four oldest ones, and the adults they have become, some married, one a mom, all working and livi
I love looking at the pictures of your farm and family! :) That scarf is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Renee! I love your blog! I really enjoyed speaking with you at the event on Saturday and I look forward to keeping up with you on your blog. I've already talked with hubs about getting rabbits, he seemed pretty open to the idea. I'm hoping this spring I can get some. I love adding to our little homestead. I'd love for you to follow my blog too. At least check it out. http://meg-silverthorn.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteBTW, I love your homeschooling sign about the village. My son isnt homeschooled but he goes to a very small private school at our church because I too have seen the village and don't want it raising my children.
