Today I’m cleaning the homeschool room and preparing our materials for our summer session AND the fall school year. I’m actually having FUN with this. I don’t know that I’ve ever been THIS prepared, or enjoyed the planning and prepping this much. I’m actually smiling as I page through our new workbooks. I can already pick out the parts that I think each child will especially enjoy.
Homeschooling prep was overwhelming for me at first. I knew it was what God wanted for our family, but I resisted it and was often consumed by it all.
Thankfully I’ve had a few great homeschool moms and teachers to bounce ideas off of, get encouragement from, and help support us on this journey.
Maybe some of you are in the stage that I was a few years ago? I just wanted to share tidbits of advice I’ve been given, or have given to others:
I am thankful for the confidence I’ve gained, and the passion in my heart for education. I have the 2015-2016 school year just about planned out. I’ll do a post with our curricula choices like I did for our 2013-2014 school year.

Wow! You amaze me! I'm still trying to figure out what we're doing for our 2014-2015 school year! ;-P
