Day 2 of homeschooling

We laughed, we cried, we sang, we got angry. This day was full of emotions and all this was before lunch. I do not know why, but today was so much more difficult. It was actually work. Our first day was so much fun, we breezed through all the materials, the kids caught on quickly, the were eager to learn. Today, what could go be more opposite and different than day 1 was so.

Welcome to life as a homeschooler.

First Day of School

This is my first day of homeschooling. It was a lot of work just getting ready for the just 4 hours of school this morning. I was surprised how easy it was to just sit down with my children and teach them. I love the fact that we were able to go to Kit Carson Park and see his gravesite and have a built in history lesson, geography, a lesson on cities and social sciences all wrapped into one. I felt sad to see these kids stuck inside a school on such a beautiful day.
