One of those days, I guess...
Sometimes I get so frustrated at all of the diversions that come up from day to day preventing us from being able to get our schoolwork done.
I know that it's all part of the home education package. After all, we don't do this to be like the government schools or to be on their schedules. Last week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday were spent at a homeschool campout. This was great, and much needed. My children met lots of other friends and it was good for me, as well. The rest of the week was spent caring for my niece and nephew, whose father is currently serving in Iraq. They left just a little while ago. It was good to do that, and I am glad I did. But now it's been a week since we've done any schoolwork. And the bad thing about that is that it is always hard to get my kids re-focused on school when they've had any type of extended break.
Oh well, I guess that's why we home educate...to have the flexibility to live....life.
