You Can Homeschool High School and Still Sleep in Heavenly Peace

You Can Homeschool High School and Still Sleep in Heavenly Peace
Panic happens.  Filled with concerns, I would lay in bed and worry about curriculum choices, scheduling conflicts, record keeping problems, and teenage angst.  I'm fairly certain that I'm not alone in my stress about homeschooling high school.  I listen to enough parents when I'm consulting or online to know this is still an issue for parents.  Is this one of those things about "increasing our pain in childbirth?"  Does that pain extend into our child's young...

"I could never be around my kids all day!"Outsiders may look at homeschool families and wonder how they survive being around their offspring all day long, every day of the week, all year long, for years at a time.The truth is, most of us don't just survive.  We THRIVE!  It's true that parenting is hard, and the joys sometimes seem few and far between.  But when you homeschool, you are at least THERE to see the...

Are you happy yet?

Are you happy yet?
Do you want to make your children happy?Proverbs 3:13-18 (NKJV) Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding.I love the fact that a man who finds wisdom is happy.  I'm less thrilled that the boy LOOKING for wisdom may be less than happy :-)  Keep up the good work, though.  Homeschooling can be difficult, and rarely do our children say "thank you."  But the fruits of our labor will lead to...

Prov 17:1 "Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind." Ecclesiastes 4:6Trying to do twice as much...

  • Making School Fun

    I tried to incorporate games into our homeschool whenever possible, in order to make school fun. We played math games, art games, and economics games.
