How this came to be.......

    When I was in 7th grade my parents decided to pull me out of public school and homeschool me. I was not very happy with their decision and to this day I feel like I missed out on so many high school experiences. Well here it is all these years later and I am making the decision to pull my son out of public school. It's not that I don't think teachers are doing their jobs it's just that I don't think it is someone else's job to raise my child. Between school and ball practice's I feel that I am leaving it up to the world to raise and watch after him when it really is my and my family's job to raise him the way we think he should be raised. God has given us these children for only a short time so I fully intend to enjoy my time with mine. Now I know that I could be making the wrong decision but I really feel that this is what we are meant to do. I hope that 20 years from now Trey will look back on his homeschool experience and have a completely different experience from what I had. A lot has changed since I was a kid so I hope it will all work out well for us. I hope you all enjoy our trip down this road and maybe we can inspire and help others as I know other blogs have helped me. 


   My goal for this blog to show you all the wonderful things that we do and how we help each other learn. Trey is an amazing child and I am not just saying that because he is mine. I hope you enjoy our journey as we start off 2nd grade together and as we explore what the world has to offer us.
