Our Homeschool! - I'll be 53 - how about you?


About Me


I began this blog to create an on going yearbook of our homeschool chronicling our highs & lows with photo's and journaling. Through the past few months I have really enjoyed getting to know so many homeschool moms and their families. Being a Homeschoolblogger has been both fun and encouraging. Please make yourself comfortable and enjoy getting to know us and how we learn at home!

Our Homeschool!

I'll be 53 - how about you?

Tuesday, April 22, 2008

A Day in Our Life Pass Me a Note!

We are soaking up all the sunny Spring weather here in New York - its truly been wonderful! All our trees are budding this week and the new, young growth is so pretty and vibrant green. Jordan has been bringing me daffodils daily that he picks from the back yard. Our little cherry tree's are full of white blossoms and there are plant shoots popping up everywhere in the flower beds! The only down side of Spring is we all want to be outside instead of home schooling! (Can you relate?!)

Despite the sunshine, we have managed to get some school done ... I wish we were further along but there is only so much I can do! We are in the "home stretch" of our school year now - just the last 20 - 30 lessons in each book and we'll be done. Ahhh.... there IS a light at the end of the tunnel.

A few weeks ago I heard a home school mom speak at our co-op meeting. She has already graduated 2 children and has another graduate this year, that leaves 4 at home. She figured she will be 60 years old when the last one graduates! This prompted me to figure out my age at the end of schooling my family and it's 53! (Josh doesn't start for another 2 years) What am I going to do with myself at that point? Just think of all the time I'll have on my hands!! LOL. I'm sure I'll miss it though. I already dread having Kayla leave for college and it's still 3 years away!

So... how old will YOU be when your finished home schooling? And what do you see yourself doing?
