Happy Monday
Does anyone else get sick and tired of thinking up new titles for their stinking posts? I hope everyone had a safe and Happy 4th of July. We had a fun, family weekend together. My dear husband had to deal with two flat tires and a car that wouldn’t start but that is another story. For the most part our day was wonderful.
I wonder at how the summer seems so frantic. It is always so much busier then the rest of the year. Is is that way for you all too? The kids and I are steadily working our way through school very gently this summer so as not to loose any of their competency in any area. I took a large break last year and realized it wasn’t a good plan for us. They get plenty of breaks through out the year, and it is so hot here mid-summer that our time is better spent schooling then playing.
I’ve had several emails and facebook comments lately about how I homeschool etc. that I thought I would write a little post tomorrow at how you can implement these methods with your family whether homeschooling fully or just supplementing your child’s traditional school schedule. I think life is learning and “we” as parents are responsible for making sure our kids get what they need to be ready for life. Anyway you slice it, that doesn’t just deal with making sure they can read, and write and do their arithmetic. It is a whole lot more then that.
As far as where I am at right now…..what I said the other day, still holds for me today.
Grace and Peace to all those testing the waters and learning something new! See you all tomorrow.
You are not alone in the ‘get sick of thinking up post titles’ area. It usually helps a little if I write the post first - as they never tend to end up being about what I thought they were going to be about. =)
