I Must Be Doing Something Right
Yesterday was our 7 year old's first day of back to school at home. He's now in 1st grade. I have to admit that I think I'm enjoying homeschooling more than he is right now. He's certainly enjoying it too but I'm having just as much fun painting alongside him, doing crafts with him (glue messes and all), and teaching him everything he needs and wants to know.
For his first day we took pictures, worked on spelling & math, studied plants, did some crafts, and read a plethora of back to school themed books. Later I let him leave with his Mamaw to go shopping for some new clothes and shoes even though he didn't really need anything new except flip-flops.
Before he went out the door, he turned to me and said something I'll keep close to me forever. He looked at me with such sweetness and said, "Your the best Mommy a fella could ever hope to have". Then he gave me a big hug and off he went.
I couldn't have asked for a better first day.
*I also wanted to do some shameless promoting over here and tell all of you about a cool contest going on over at A Mom's Review. We are giving away 10 complete cake kits from Cakes By Me. Go HERE to read our review and enter the contest.Labels: homeschooling, motherhood

Congratulations! That sounds like a great first day of school.
awwww...that's so great!
It does look like so much fun. In fact, I am most looking forward to the early grades. The later grades with all the crazy math and such scares me LOL
He sounds like a dea boy like mine. I'm always hearing that I'm the best mommy in the whole world and his special best friend. Boys are so sweet!
that is really sweet. Happy first day back at homeschool!
Know the feeling. Now I'm not brave enough to homeschool (may the force be with you) but I have a son who thinks that world of me. Makes everyday worth it.
by the way, you were the first blog I saw online when I was surfing the internet for who knows what about a month ago. I have never turned back and love every minute of it. Thanks.
How sweet is he? Glad you had a good first day.
What a true gentleman you are raising! That is so sweet Amanda. Here's to a great year for you all. Cheers!!!
