Part of the problem was that I started things up again after only one week after returning home from our trip out west. I soon realized that I needed more time to regroup and get things situated, but I plunged ahead anyway because people were getting restless without a routine.
This week things went more smoothly, but we are still finding our daily rhythm. I'll let you know when we've found it entirely. :)
Here are some pictures of our annual "First Day of School" breakfast/brunch/lunch at IHOP. Our kids could eat there for
weeks on end without getting tired of it.
We are having a blast with a unit on rocks and minerals, and we've taken a couple of neat field trips too.
More on all that to come!

I'm glad to hear that other "experienced" homeschool moms can have rough starts too! :) I'm new to this whole thing this year and am struggling a bit to find what works for our family.. but it's still been good and I know I'll get there eventually!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to know that even "experienced" homeschool moms can have rough starts too! :) This is my first year to homeschool and it has been a little hard to find what works best for our family... it has been good, though and I know I'll get it figured out eventually!
