The desks have been moved into the family room, the chalkboard wall is drying, and the bulletin board is in place. The "Alphabet and Numbers" posters are in place on the wall and on the desks. Students' names are on their desk (even though Kenna is still preschool age - at 3 - she also has a desk that she may "join" in anytime she would like to).
The nervousness at being out of practice of homeschooling and at teaching a kindergartener has subsided and the enthusiasm has kicked in. Maddy' s excitement over the first day of school arriving is contagious! Can't wait to get started!
We homeschool because we believe "There are two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One is roots; the other, wings." (Hodding Carter, Jr.) In order to help our children establish roots and spread their wings, we believe in...strength in family relationships...an intimate relationship with God...being socially active...networking within the community to make our town a better place...excellence in academics and life skills...and that we are never too old to yearn for knowledge.
