All in a Day's Work

     What do you remember most about when you went to school?   That can easily be a loaded question.  Most people have a few good memories, but more than a few they would like to forget forever.  A precious few only have great memories.  For them, it was one of the best times in their lives. 
     Ahh, to be one of those people...

     As you may, or may not know, the biggest reason we decide to pull our kids out of school was the fact that they were NOT having a happy time.  Getting picked on and beat up at school AND on the bus makes for a very long day.   All those bad times are just a memory now.  I am thankful every day for that. 
     So here is a very small glimpse into what some of our school days look like.

Those frogs are soooo annoying!  You can hear them, but can never see them.



We chased them for almost 2 hours with no luck.



Ryan learned a math game and then taught it to Evan.  This was part of their math for the day.

The start of a great art project.

     Even though the complain about doing school, EVERY DAY, no one has ever, ever asked to go back to public school.  We have made the right choice.  My house may not be as clean as it could be, there is always laundry waiting to get washed, and some projects have been on the back burner so long now that they are burned beyond recognition.  There is nothing that could make me change my mind that home school is a great thing!
