Did school with P and G separate than E.  Worked a little better.  We are going to get into full swing of things by next week hopefully.  Hitting all core subjects for now.  Proud of my girls.  Got to get pictures taken of each of them too to hang up for first day.  To come shortly, .. hopefully. ...

Wow!! My baby turns 9 today!!! So hard to believe it has been 9 years ago that I became a mom.  I never imagined in a million years that I would have 3 beautiful little girls and homeschooling them all.

School looked a little different today but we were able to get the core subjects in and it went a little better.  Hoping over the next week or so we will have a set in routine for us all.

It's beginning to look a lot like School Again :) - along with the Olympics :)

Well today was the first day of school for us.  E started 3rd grade, P started 2nd grade and G started kindergarten.  So unreal!!! These first few weeks are going to be trial and error on my part until we can figure out what works.  Today went okay but already saw how some things are going to have to change in order to be the most productive we can.
