About Us

My photo
I am a mom to 4 boys. I am doing this blog to allow family, friends and anyone interested to see how this adventure turns out. I have home schooled my oldest 2 boys before we moved and tried a smaller school but I ultimatly feel they are best off at home with the people who care the most about them and their education.

Are we there yet?

We are getting closer to being ready I know 100% ready will probably not happen until the end of June but that's ok I have a lot of great things planned to keep the kids' minds and bodies busy this summer. We live close enough to Silver Dollar City to go once to twice a week. The zoo is a bit farther and there is a science center close too. I am hoping to make a trip to St. Louis to the "BIG" zoo.  We are planning on our first official day to be July 1 this gives us almost year round learning with small breaks often and about a month during the summer. My kids being the little sponges they are, want to be constantly learning and doing. I feel this will work out well for them. All in all definitely ready.

Getting started

The oldest 2 boys have about a month left in PS. I have already started preparing for our adventure for the upcoming year. I call it an adventure because doing anything with 4 kids has an unknown outcome. I am making lesson plans and finding helpful websites. I am going to have a 6th grader, a 3rd grader, a kindergartner, and a preschooler(who is 20months old and already counting to 10, knows some colors and shapes) I may have my hands full with him. I am very excited I think the kids will be too once they get to start helping with some of the planning. I will be updating as we get ready and including any good links I find.
