Standing on the Edge

Tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow we start the new adventure of homeschooling. I think I’m ready. I’ve pulled out all the books and such for the first week, I’ve looked over the plans for the week, I’ve gotten the calendar ready and even wrote out a little schedule on the white board to help me through the first day. I’ve spent hours thinking through this, planning it, reviewing things, dreaming, and now we are on the edge of starting…

I won’t lie, I am a bit nervous. My husband works for the local charter school one day a week and subs there on my days off and they had their back to school picnic last week and I had moments of wondering what we are doing and if we are making the right choice. I almost panicked and thought we should jump ship. But I think we are making the right choice for our family and for this year. I’m not going to plan out the next 13 years yet (17 years if you count all 3 boys), instead I’m going to focus on this year, and even more on tomorrow and this week.

I am excited too. I still don’t know how it’s all going to fall and if the plan in my head is going to work at all or not, but I’m ready to get started. I feel like we are standing on the edge of a big pool and just waiting to jump in. I’m ready to jump. I’ll keep everyone updated on how its going.
