Ok, my first attempt at my very first blog was a bust. So, keeping my fingers crossed, I'm gonna try it again. Firstly, homeschooling is a lot of work. The hardest being not hanging my son by his thumbs, no really, I'm serious. I talked to another friend of miine who is also a homeschooling mom, and I'm really appreciating all the help I am recieving from everybody. One friend, Lorna, gave the sage advice of breaking up the classes, do a few problems of math, when he gets fidgety leave it and then come back to it. WOW! that really is amazing! I know it sounds little, but it really is huge, for that I am grateful. Another friend, Errin, who is homeschooling said that sometimes there are those kids out there who cant do their school work quietly, or w/o fidgeting. She told me to relax, and just let him be. Maybe that's just the way he learns. As she was telling me this, I could here his teachers telling me that he never shuts up. So, hmmm, I'm thinking maybe this is how it has to be. I have to take a chill pill and chill. So, that is what I am doing. (w/o the pills of course) I am letting him do it his way, as much as I want to strangle the life out of him. Just kidding (no I'm not. Yes I am. No I'm not, Yes I am hmmm, I wonder which side of me is gonna win that battle)
So that is the end of my first blog, and before I hit send I am going to copy this so I can just paste it if it doesnt work.
Wish me luck
