Beginning

So it's the start of a new year. And with that comes the excitement of starting a new plan, or perhaps just starting over. I have admired all my friends who diligently keep up with their blogs. Documenting their little families history page by page. I find it magical. I have tried so many times to start a blog. But inevitably it only lasts a couple entries and then fizzles out. So I'm focusing instead on the process versus having a "blog". I am dedicating one hour each week to writing on this thing. It may turn into more since I am homeschooling the kiddos and I most definitely want to keep track of our goings on. But I'm not going to put pressure on myself to do anymore than one hour per week.

So the reason for my blog post today is that I FINISHED my home school schedule and curriculum for the next semester. This is from scratch people. Well ok, not from scratch per say, but I am not following anyones's curriculum. I have spent the past two years almost now dedicated to reading gobs of home school blogs, websites, styles of education, you name it, I've probably read about it. But I've settled on two styles of education. Montessori and Waldorf. Don't ask me why. That can be another day. But I have yet to stumble across another home school family that is incorporating both. So in some aspects I'm a lone soldier. But that's ok, I've never been the type of person to go with the flow.

This is a new adventure for me, and I'm all in. There are a lot of reasons why I decided to home school but that again will be an entire post by itself. So I hope you enjoy the journey with me. I'm writing this like people are reading it. Haha. If you think it they will come.....

Until next time
