I am going rouge!

After three years of home schooling with the 'help' of a contact teacher and a state approved charter school I have decided to go at it on my own! This came with much thought, discussion, prayer, and concern. The always present question; am I doing the right thing? Is this the right thing for my kids? Are they going to learn all they need to? Are they going to be well adjusted adults?

Well ready or not here I go! Hopefully this decreases stress and allows me more time to work with my kids instead of worrying about the next progress report, the next test, the next portfolio conference! We will see!

I suppose since there is NO way to teach my kids everything there is to know about everything I will just work toward giving them a LOVE of learning and the ability to teach themselves anything they want to learn!

Lost Couple years!


I feel like I lost a couple years in those two years I was in school. Thankfully that era is past! I can maybe keep this darn thing updated! I love reading other peoples blogs, its fun to hear what is going on in their lives and to read their particular writing style. I probably have all of 5 readers my sisters and my mom, but I don't care! I like keeping a record (with pictures) of what has been going on in life! Here is a cute family pic Amanda took! Not sure what else needs updated. I am sure there is a LOT......
