My Two Small Boys - Update on our chrysallis

Aug. 26, 2008 - Update on our chrysallis

If you look very closely, you can see the wings. I don't think it will be long before we see the butterfly.

When we got married, we intended on having children, but homsechooling was never discussed. We both went to public school, so it was just assumed our kids would too. (Besides, aren't all homeschooled kids weird? :) Anyway, because of family circumstances, I quit my job in accounting to stay home with the boys after our youngest was born. When our oldest was kindergarten age, we decided we did not want him to go to the public school system we were in. Having known some homeschooling families (and their kids were not all that weird), I decided I would try it that year. Here we are 4 years later, still doing it and enjoying it. We are in a co-op, and the kids love their friends! People ask us how long we are planning on homeschooling, and at this point, we have no plan. We just take it year by year. There are challenges!! But day by day, God gets us through each one.
