Sabrina, Thanks for asking. My name is Laurel and we reside in the beautiful State of Wisconsin. I am so excited to start home schooling. I love getting everything ready and working on my lesson plans. Today I received a curriculum that I ordered which is called Tapestry. It is a Unit type study which incorporates history, reading, english, geography and bible study all in one. Has anyone ever used this program before? I am very much looking forward to diving right in. However, do any of you ever feel over whelmed with the whole planning process and also incorporating the daily running of the household ie. laundry, cooking, cleaning, doctors appointments, etc. Laurel

We definitely do!!! Read some of the past posts or reply and bring them to the front if you have other questions.

Laurel,

I think most of us get overwhelmed at times, and tired, and cranky, and may even wonder why on earth we decided to homeschool! :D But over-all it's GREAT, and I am sooo glad I have this opportunity to be with my children and help them learn!

Welcome, Welcome!
