The great outdoors as our classroom

We checked on some fishing traps at the nature center and got to learn about different animal tracks. We love days like this. It's great how science can seem like life.

Adult socialization

I read a lot about people thinking homeschoolers lack socialization. If done right this is not the case. There are many opportunities to get children involved in sports, music, co-ops, and clubs. However, it was easier to get chores and errands done when X was in public school. I had some free/alone time. I do find it harder to get out because I'm now in the position that my husband was in before. He would work then come home and never have downtime for himself. I know that self-care is essential but I wish I didn't feel so guilty about it. 

Milestone

I started this blog 1 year ago! I posted 52 entries and made my goal. I'm not the best writer but I followed through with this and didn't lose interest. I plan to continue weekly postings.

Warriors

We've given ourselves a mascot. We are the WARRIORS!
