I get to be with our girls everyday. Pretty cool! I know some of my friends & co-workers say they could NEVER homeschool. I personally believe that home education is not for every family. It IS presently for our family. We've been home educating since 2001 when oldest was "kindgergarten age" b/c that's when we decided to NOT send her to public school. It's been a great experience for all of us. We use Sonlight, MathUSee, Latina Christiana II, Wordly Wise, Easy Grammar, Daily Grams and other miscellaneous supplements for art and have a weekly co-op.
