I would love to have children who beg to do school (at home).Andelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07709267251497679951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139565261101048738.post-29637402003937013522011-06-02T20:21:40.456-06:002011-06-02T20:21:40.456-06:00Awesome!

I reeeeeeeeally needed a little kick in the homeschool pants because I've been pretty much unschooling kids this last year. I hate unschooling and I really didn't *mean* to, it just happened. Better than public school? I don't know. At any rate, it definitely made me rethink whether or not (a) I am capable of homeschooling these many Smithlings and (b) it's the best option.<br />SO!<br />Sorry I'm rambling. This was supposed to be a quick thank-you for instilling me with a little "it can be done" inspiration. I love love love your blog.Mrs.Smithhttp://mrs.smithsmithfam.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139565261101048738.post-49509438343969501742011-06-01T12:52:44.766-06:002011-06-01T12:52:44.766-06:00I totally recommend you read "The Invention o...I totally recommend you read "The Invention of Hugo Cabret".

Instilling a love for learning is what it's all about. Love it! Thanks for sharing your book list. I had forgotten some of those wonderful titles and am now in the planning stages for next year. Thanks for the reminders!Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00400221337810877516noreply@blogger.com
