Homeschool

I have been searching the Internet non-stop for homeschool curriculum. I think it has become an obsession. There is so much out there and it's mostly fun to sift through and decide what we might like. Ella is adamant that she doesn't want to be homeschooled but in truth, she doesn't even know what it is. When I tell her about some friends we know that are hs'd she's shocked. She thinks that she won't be able to see her school friends anymore if she stays home. I joined that hs group and in a couple of weeks they are having a hs day at Peacock Tree Farm. I can't wait to go. I think it will be great opportunity for her to see some of the things we can do and for her to meet more kids. I know I will welcome meeting new people and getting some support in this journey. We are still waiting to see what this year brings at school before we decide for next year. It's good to keep our options open and gather as much information as we can right?

On a side note, this is my 100th post. Not too exciting for anyone but me but I had to say it. :)

I support you in whatever you decide, but I also think HS is a wonderful option for families who can do it. You and Bret should both read Voddie Baucham's book titled Family Driven Faith. It is encouraging, pointed and will give you another perspective on HS vs Public. We also ordered Voddie's book What He Must Be - another one for you guys to read since you have beautiful daughters who will some day be a wife (Lord willing). . .that's my 2 cents. Let me know how your field trip goes.
