what home schooling looks like, sometimes...

 

it's busy and messy...and it's hard for my son to concentrate...

and they all love each other and drive each other insane at the same time...

and we never finish everything I have planned for us because there are so many distractions...

and it is okay, because they continue to grow and learn...

even though half the time we do it at home and half the time we do it at church and my kids thrive with structure, but we aren't able to provide the same schedule each day because of our ministry.

it is okay, but is it best?

Praying for direction and answers about school for our kids in the future.
(and loving Lulu bee's fairy wings and muddy feet in this pic  from playing outside.)

And Preslie is simply proud of her 'monkey' she is drawing and I just want to enjoy that monkey and it not be a stumbling block for Jesse to get his work done.

I was able to enjoy Jesse's 'monkeys,' Shelby's too.

We always want to do what is the very best for our kids.

We are always and have always been evaluating each step...feels different now.
I love having all of my kiddos home with me...is it best?

We'll see.
