So I have been homeschooling for going on about a month now. I can honestly say there has not been a moment of regret. Frustration and irritation but no regret. I feel in my heart that this is completely the right thing to do and God continues to affirm this is so many ways!!!

Evynn and Kailyn are doing pretty well too. The get a little needy or loud at times but really, I am amazed at how they are able to entertain each other. I enjoy listening to them play as Bowden and I work on school.

Perhaps the funniest moment of homeschooling so far was yesterday while working on lowercase "m". I was explaining to Bowden the proper way to make an "m" which he did not agree with and he looked at me and said "Mommy, that is ridiculous!" I told him if we ever came across the person who came up with the proper way to write letters we could tell him. I have to say, I do agree with Bowden. he can make a perfectly nice "m" without doing it the "proper" way!!!

Bowden started at Homeschool Academy last week. it is a one day program that allows moms some free time and gives the students some social interaction and outside instruction. Bowden's teach said on the first day "He certainly has a lot of energy". And today... he got a note sent home saying he is struggling with self-control and talking (no, not one of our children... talking too much????). Not shocked by this!!! One of the big reasons that we started going down the road of homeschooling in the first place. I cannot imagine how it would be going if he had to sit in a class all day every day. I love that he goes to Academy once a week to work on these skills but he is not getting int trouble all day every day!

Well, that is about it for now! Off to enjoy an evening with my blessed husband!!!!
