The Most UnWacky Family Ever

Posted in Reflections

I've put off completing the assignment for Blogger Friend School because I just cannot find one thing to write about.  So, I'm declaring us the Most UnWacky Family Ever. 

 

We like order and structure

We thrive on schedules

We live in the Suburbs

We have three kids and one dog

Dh is a computer programmer and I am a home-lovin momma with a degree in teaching

We can't ever even imagine ourselves trying to "unschool"

The scariest thing I (momma) ever done is go white-water rafting with dh on our honeymoon

Ummmmm....

 

I really can't come up with more than that. 

 

I think our neighbors think we are wacky (for homeschooling, grinding flour/baking bread, square-foot gardening, staying home alot, wearing dresses and skirts to the soccer game and letting our kids play-out the battle scenes from "Narnia") but in comparison to some other homeschoolers we are pretty ordinary.

I can identify with you on a lot of this! I'm wired in similar ways, and while I enjoy letting my kids pursue their interests, I can't imagine going as far as "unschooling." But battle scenes from Narnia sounds pretty fun!
