Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. I like you already.
This is my blog’s first post. Who am I? What is this blog about?
I am a teacher in a private school that is so exclusive, one must be born into it. You guessed it. I homeschool.
People homeschool for many reasons these days. I homeschool because life does not come with a dress rehearsal. This is it. My children are small only once. I love them and I like them and I want to spend time with them.
In the United States, where I live, school is seven hours a day, which means my children would spend more of their awake time with their teachers and classmates than with me. I’m not OK with that. More on that, in future blog posts.
I created this blog to record our official homeschooling journey from the beginning, as our oldest starts kindergarten this fall.
In this blog, I also plan to:
- identify the problems a homeschooling mom may face and how to solve them
- celebrate the joys and the a-ha moments
- ask questions about homeschooling nuts and bolts and see about the answers
- share what I find in my research and, maybe, help somebody in the process.
Expect two posts a week, on Monday and Friday (except for launch week, when I post daily in order to hit the cyber ground running). Occasionally though, as things happen and inspiration strikes, I will post on other days of the week as well. So be sure to subscribe via RSS feed or email or follow along through Facebook for fun updates, helpful tips and encouraging words.
Have you ever thought of homeschooling? Please leave me a comment below and…
Happy reading!
