What A Month!



Sister & nephews went to Mom's on the 10th, spent the week there, then went home. We miss them very much.

It's been a bit of a struggle getting back into our routine. Not only did we have visitors for a month, I had 4 Tupperware events, then GLJ came to town! Then Thanksgiving, then GLJ again.

Today we had a regular day of school, and now we're listening to Christmas music & making decorations.

MIL asked the girls about their schooling schedule, which I found odd. She never asks about their schooling. Apparently, Chloe said that we hadn't had school in a while, which caused MIL some concern.

The thing non~homeschoolers don't understand is that we can go a while without having school. Homeschooling is a lifestyle, not something we do between certain hours, Monday through Friday. We do have standards that the children must meet. They must complete their lessons. If they don't do it by the end of the school year, we can stretch the school year. They can do their school work on weekends, holidays, whenever. There really is no cause for concern if we miss a few days.

Anyway, it's lunch time, so off I go!
