ULOG 20: I Guess HomeSchooling Started

in #ulog6 years ago (edited)

I was starting to feel stressed out over homeschooling. What am I doing? Are we just gonna hang out at home forever?

But today, I went supply shopping.

And all of a sudden I needed! A binder for attendance, and replacement rulers, new glue and tape, sharply sharpened pencils and pencil sharpeners, erasers, a new mini board and dry erase markers, that book i'd been wanting.

I bought some stuff just because it was well priced, but made sure to take inventory of my cart and making sure that EVERYTHING I was purchasing had a specific use. All of a sudden, my confidence came back. The giddiness of school supplies overcame any little anxiety I had been feeling.

A new journal was all I needed to start planning all of the projects I have been wanting to work out. My calendar is getting full, my project list is getting full, and all of a sudden I find myself thinking: "Will I have enough time to complete all these awesome projects?"

Halloween, Valentines Day, 100 Days of School, Weekly Celebrations. I love being the classroom mom and teacher all in one.

I love homeschooling, having my kids next to me, letting them sleep longer, forming partnerships within themselves, being there for the light bulb moments.

Today, I went from being stressed to realizing that I am truly blessed.

Ah yes! So glad to read you got your homeschooling mojo back! I have a couple hard cases in my clan- you know the ones who's first answer to anything is "No!" So, what am I doing? Probably creating more of that by focusing on it! Lol! So, I need to get my head clear and get refocused. Maybe go supply shopping alone... Maybe... Anyway, enough about me--good for you! 💖

That magic journal will compel everything into place :)
All the best @metzli
Can't wait to hear about your home-school journey

Homeschooling, sometimes we'd wonder whether we have done the right thing. Putting our children's education into our direct ward is very challenging, sometimes scary. But for me, a year later, it is also one of the best decisions we made.

Glad that you feel better after a bit of out the classroom teaching. I'm always amazed how.onw can carry both roles with their kids. That's something I will never achieve. I'll be glad that they even take me as a friend to share their inner thoughts when they become a teenager.

Live & love... That's my motto in life too

Good for you! This has been our best year yet! 5 years strong! Go mama!
