Aug. 4, 2006 - Remembering when we began homeschooling
As we are getting ready to start a new school year, I am thinking back to the days when we began many years ago. We had such fun days when the kids were little creating alphabet people or animals each week for kindergarten what sweet days and doing little crafts after reading a great book. Also I remember the struggle trying to stay home and not go out. (Sometimes we still struggle with that) So I had a pajama day each week. I would shower and shave the night before and put on a clean pair of jammies so that I could stand to stay in them all day. And we would have a special no rush day devoted to school. And right before my husband would come home I would get all cleaned up and then get dinner going. He didn’t know about my jammie days until much later. Now we are busy with sports (tennis right now) and swimming at my mom’s house. The school work is harder but we are still enjoying homeschooling as much as ever. But I really miss those days when the kids were small and we could be in out jammies until afternoon. I loved those days but would not go back and mess things up for my kids they are so sweet and special and my favorite people to be around except for my husband. It is just nice to remember those days.

I look back and can't believe how fast the years are going by. You know, I think we all need to take a few more "jammie" days. :o)
