Home Education Begins

There is so much to write about homeschooling and my decision to move forward with Homeschooling George.  I haven't had the chance to write all about it but I hope to post more on it in the coming weeks. Tomorrow George will officially begin his first day in Preschool at home.  I have been home educating him since last year but it was never on a set schedule rather it was to get him used to learning and seeing me as his teacher.  I don't know how everything is going to go tomorrow or the rest of the year but I am fully surrendering it to Jesus, Mary and Holy Spirit to help me and guide me through homeschooling.  The church has given us parents the responsibility to be our children's primary educators and I think I am taking my first step into this role.






I have planned to start early tomorrow and take the kids to morning mass at our church to get blessed by the priest.  I am also taking his books and other items to be blessed so that we can have a fresh start.  I think this will also help George to see that it is not the same anymore where we just do school whenever we feel like but we are doing it more seriously.   I have been telling him all about it today and preparing him.  I have no idea what it all means to him.  I will let the Spirit lead me.

Back To School Schultutes

I added a rosary also in there

I just finished making a Back to School Schultutes for George.  I added some goodies for him to feel extra special on his first day of school.  This is going to be fun.  With regards to teaching I am going to continue where I left off last week.  Currently I am using two preschool curriculum for George, Little Saints Preschool Program and Seton.  I hope and pray that I will do the best I can with the little knowledge and understanding God has given me.  I know I am no expert and I don't have the patience or capabilities to do this but I do know that I shouldn't be depending on my strength, instead completely trust in the Lord who has blessed me with the children and the call to Homeschooling.

 As I prepare myself for this new endeavor I am also praying very specially for all the moms and children out there who are beginning their new school year.  May God guide each one of us to do what is best for our children and let our only goal be to bring our children closer to Jesus.
