Is Anyone Still Here?
Sporadic blogging = ME + very busy building an online empire. Ha!
Ok, moving along... ;)
After my last post, finding balance, I really started thinking about how I wanted my son to experience schooling and ultimately it all went back to why we were homeschooling in the first place. Basically, I want my son to have fun learning. I want him to look forward to schooling so I let go of my expectations and thoughts on what school should be like (I'm still unschooling myself), and the stress has "magically" dissipated. I'm happy to report that things are going much more smoothly as we head into our 4th week of the homeschooling year.
FYI: I'm almost always micro-blogging here

Good for you for easing up and making it fun again. If I homeschool I would hope I could relax and just have fun but that so goes against who I am so I'm afraid that wouldn't be something that came easy to me.
Thanks for commenting Nell. I felt that way in the beginning - like we had to have a strict schedule,etc. but it wasn't working and what we are doing now while it's on a schedule of sorts is very different than what I started with a few weeks ago. We are all much happier! :)
- On their names, I usually don't mention them but I see that post (from 3 years ago-wow!) had their names in the photo!
