Cool!!! Is she going into kindergarten? I've been through the rigor of finding curriculums so let me know if I can help you in any way with them. There is a ton!
Oh wow! I'm so impressed. I wish I could do it but I know my limitations. I'm seriously considering it when the boys enter middle school and they can take their classes online. I wish you the best of luck and hope you will post lots about how it's going!
That's so wonderful, Annie! You're in for such a blessing....just wait and see! :) Holler if I can help in anyway....we've been at this for going on 16 years now so I've learned a few things along the way! I wouldn't trade that time with my kids for anything, although some days I wanted to flag down the bus and put them on it (especially one of them)! :)
Here's a question to everyone who is home schooling from a non-mother. What are the advantages to home schooling? And what makes you decide to home school one child over another? Just curious...I imagine I'll be pretty excited to have my kids out of the house for 6-7 hours a day!
Congrats on your decision! We too just made that same decision for our oldest two who are going into 7th & 8th grade. We are an Air Force family so not everywhere we go is conducive to a good Jr. High experience to say the least. I look back now how for years and years that we were in private Christian school I proclaimed that this is what we would do forever. Ummm...yeah. Now I've got the twins in public school, two in China that are TBD as far as their future education and homeschooling jr. high schoolers. I've learned to stop making proclamations! ;) As you know, after you've done this parenting thing for a few years you realize that A: you cannot predict anything and B: what works for one child may not work for another. They are all uniquely created people and adjustment for that is inherently necessary. Happy for you! Can't wait to follow along!
LET me know how the schooling thing goes????!!! She is soooo stinkin cute, guess us Moms are suckers!
