Posted in My Homeschool FAQs
This has been such a wild and CrAzY year for us that I really lost all control over school. We stopped doing our Sonlight Curriculum at Christmas, and somehow we never got back to it... So, I decided I need to sit down and go through my calendar, blog and notes to see just what we did do this year! This is not the year I expected to have when we started out last September. I think it has been a good year none the less.
