Ah, it's that time again!!!  Where children are going back to school!  A certain commercial portrays how excited parents are to be getting rid of thier kids again.  Back to school they go!  A father joyously skips down an isle, dragging his miserable children on a couch.  He just can't wait for them to go!  Sadly, at a family get together last weekend, my cousins were talking about the commercial and agreed, they were happy thier kids were going back.  Actually, I am thrilled kids are going back to school.  I can take my kids out now without all the other PS'd kids there, with thier bad attitudes and making things busy, lol.   Parks will be empty, aside from a few wee ones.  Malls will no longer be over run with half dressed, foul mouthed children.  Ah, it's great.  It's just so sad that society feels so negatively towards children.  Towards thier own flesh and blood, the precious wee ones whom they once rocked lovingly in thier arms, they now can't wait to push out the door.  As I said in another post, the one about not fitting in, it's just hard for me to wrap my head around it. 

See, I'm thrilled that my kid's are 'going back to school'.  We ended up taking a break this summer and I throughly miss teaching my kids.  I miss watching them learn math and science.  I miss our projects and story time.  I can't wait to get back to it!  We'll be starting a new curriculum again.  If it ever gets here.  It's 'Animal's and thier world's' and "I'm ready to Learn" by Winter Promise.  I'm so excited!  My kids love animal's especially the oldest.   I'll do another post soon about what all we'll be doing this year.

For me, this is the most wonderful time of the year!  Homeschooling is such a rich and rewarding experience.  I wouldn't give this up for anything.  Watching my children learn, spending all my days with them.  Nurtruing them, guiding them, training them up in the way they should go.  This is exactly what I want to be doing with my life and I'm so thankful the Lord has blessed me with these great kids.
