So long...

It has been so long since I have been here to post or even to just read other blogs. Things have had their ups and downs this year. It is March and the weather is nice. Need I say more? Anyone else out there get that early summer fever in their homeschool house?

My hubby and I have agreed to school outside the home next year. I think I will still add things. I've really fallen for the lapbooks and just haven't had time to do them with my older DD. There are so many things on the internet to enrich a child's education. I think I'll like not being the teacher full time.

Now, both DD's got into a new charter school here in town. DD1 loves the idea of a math/science centered learning. But now we found out that DD2 got into the other charter school here. This one is more service centered. Do we put the DD's in 2 different schools or have DD2 follow DD1? I wish I knew more of what DD2's strengths were. I know DD1 is math and science loving...but is DD2 also? It's hard to say yet. She likes doing worksheets that are more game like. I haven't noticed a tendency toward numbers or letters. She likes doing the science things with us but what kids doesn't like hands on action?

It's something I have been praying about. I just don't know...and we need to answer by the 26th. I think hubby wants the girls to go to the same school. They are in different levels so they may not see each other all that often. It would probably be easier since it's one pick up and not running from one school to the next.

So after I have dumped my random thoughts...I'm off to play with the girls-outside!!
