Technically there are still two left.

Caught up!! Hooray!! ;-D
I love it when...Serene....<br />Caught up!! Hooray!! ;-D<br />I love it when God whispers into our hearts and souls to do something, we argue like rebellious children, and yet He still encourages us!! Been there. Done that!! Turns out, God is even more stubborn than me!! ;)<br />By the way? I was homeschooled!! Did I ever mention that before? I was homeschooled, and it was the best decision that my parents ever made!! How so? Mom was able to teach all four of us individually. With my learning disabilities, sister's dyslexia, and youngest brother's Down syndrome, this was the best approach!! I would have been so behind any peers developmentally. Instead, Mom was able to notice my that strongest subject is words and vocabulary. For which, as a writer, I am eternally grateful!! So. Along with other important subjects, Mom encouraged my writing skills!! No "professional" teacher could have ever done that!! Did I have a "normal" childhood? Yes!! We were involved with a Home School Support Group at church. There were fun events, such as field trips. Not to mention. Church, Sunday School, plus Summer camp!! I would not trade homeschooling for the world!! ;-D<br />--Raelyn <br />Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005199691237610718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411626042871756090.post-41730797675455251992013-09-05T03:07:29.731-07:002013-09-05T03:07:29.731-07:00I'm so proud of you Serene.

Even after homeschooling for 9+ years I can't lie and say it all gets easy. It does get easier though. You each find new routines and ways to relate to one another and that carries you a long way. Praying for you as you work out the routines!!Tristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14483248387092516827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411626042871756090.post-47983797375852831642013-09-04T20:16:20.526-07:002013-09-04T20:16:20.526-07:00Oh sweet Serene!

If you were inspired to do it, you'll be inspired in HOW to do it. Good luck, my dear, and we can commiserate mightily.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187291686384680925noreply@blogger.com
