Not too many years ago, this was the most depressing time of the year for me. While most of the other parents were rejoicing in the new school year, I was mourning. I hated sending my kids back to school, hated having to get back into an artificial schedule dictated by the school. . hated losing my kids again after a summer of fun.
But now I love this time of year! We've had a great summer, and we'll continue the fun as we segue into a new school year--together. We'll build on what we learned over the summer, and we'll read new books, begin new subjects. . .what could be better?
Yes, we'll be back on a schedule--but it's one that works for us. There will be reading and writing and assignments and math and labs and the like, but think of the learning!
The best thing is that we get to do it together.
I love homeschooling.
