The Thing About Schooling at Home….

 

Is that you’re AT HOME!

What’s the big deal about that??

I’ll tell you…

Today was our first day of school.  I had vague plans for how it would go.  Unfortunately the rest of the world wasn’t clued in on my plans.

First Travis asked to go check his live traps.  No biggie… until he came in shouting that he’d caught something.  So then everyone had to go rushing outside to check it out.

Okay… that’s okay… all part of the joy of homeschooling… right?

Then they come in and I hear them setting up to play Aggravation with Brian.

I remind myself that this is making memories… and tell them it better be the fastest game ever!

We finally get down to business… and my phone rings.

I ignore it.

So they come to the house… Brian’s parents wanting Jake to come play with his cousin.

Right about then is when I decide schedules just make me crazy…

 

Good news is we did get everything finished that I had planned.

And, thanks to the menu I worked up Saturday night and my handy-dandy Crock Pot, we even had a hot, home-cooked meal ready when we got through!!
