What Are You Learning?

Yes, your children are learning history, literature, math and science. What are you learning from your homeschooling adventure?

Are you learning to pick your battles? Sometimes things are not wirth fighting over. So you do history today and put math off for tomorrow, big deal, if it all gets done who cares?

Are you learning who your children are? Watching your children grow and develop into individuals is a humbling gift of homeschooling.

Are you learning patience? This one I'm sure everyone can chuckle at. Patience, are you kidding? Of course I'm learning patience. Do you know anyone besides homeschoolers who can disect a snake, complete a unit study on Ancient Egypt, explain Algebra to a hormonal teenager all while doing laundry, running errands and getting dinner ready without a meltdown?

What are you learning from your homeschool journey?
