Homeschool. Learning through living!


Going to town



Psalm 127:3-4 says:

 Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. 


It really is amazing how little time you see each other when you go to public school. I am glad that my kids will not just grow up together, but they will also spend it together.

                     What about being social? Homeschool may cause them to be "weird" in some way:)
Other home schooled friends:)
                                   
                                    Can kids really learn at home? You have no desk! hehe
                                                                
                                                                      
                          
                                                           
                                            Kids need to eat. What do our kids do?
Tailgating at Yosemite National Park with dad on lunch break!
                                   


Beats school food. hehe
                                             We learn history through Civil War re-enactments.
                                                   
                                                                            
                                                                               
                                 What about things like 4-H and Home Economics?

                                                        What life skills are we teaching them?



                                                              
                                                                                 

                             
                                                                                

                                                                   

                            We also learn other things. Like where food and milk comes from.

                                                                                                        
   
                                                                    
                                                                                 



                  Okay, so one more question . What about all the "free" time  kids might have? Wouldn't  kids benefit from more time in school? This of course is a personal decision that every person or family has to make. Only you and God knows whats best for your children:)


                                                                 

                                       Not everyone can homeschool. This of course is do to many different factors. I  did not homeschool my first 2 children. I also only started schooling, full time, 3 years ago.  So, I do not judge anyone who chooses or can't homeschool. If for any reason, I had to return the kids to  Public school, I would still trust God with my kids, the same as I do while homeschooling:)

 Homeschooling = No pressure to be anyone other then who God created you to be!!
