Well, how do I start? We are a relaxed homeschooling family of four, 2 boys and 2 girls. We live on the outskirts of a fairly large metro area, but we're in the process now of trying to find a home further in the "country". I would love to live on a farm, in an old farm house. However, only me and the girls see it that way, my husband and boys like convenience, and video games, and cable tv.
We have homeschooled since the oldest was in 1st grade, which means this is the end of our 8th year! Wow, time flies! We always have fun, though, and I have used almost every style imaginable. From school at home, to unschooling, and I think everything works! I change from year to year with each child, according to what I feel they need to learn or catch up on. I am not trying to raise geniuses, I simply want my children to know and love the Lord, and to know what it is to walk with him every day, every minute. All the rest is icing on the cake!!!!! |
