I have decided to take the plunge and homeschool my 5 1/2 year old that is going into Kindergarten. I am super excited and nervous all at the same time. This decision came after very careful and prayerful thinking for my husband and I.
We have always thrown around the idea but never really took the plunge. Up until recently our plan was to send Maddison to Adventure Christian School where she went to preschool and a place that she loved. When I decided to step down from working and be a full time stay at home mom, with that took away the income to send her there. After tossing around numbers and budgets we decided while we could make it work I have the opportunity now (being that I am not working) to homeschool her.
Luckily I have some great friends who have already walked the path ahead of me to help me navigate around the different Charter schools to go through, curriculum, funding and all of the other ins and outs of homeschooling.
So here we are about a month before school will start and I am excitedly and anxiously planning out the school year. Most of the curriculum has been ordered, supply lists have been made and I am really looking forward to being able to plan out her Bible curriculum on my own!
So as one chapter closes (working in Ministry at our church) and another opens.
Here goes another Adventure as I let God lead the way.
Caitlin, what a gift you're giving to your sweet one! Just as we were blessed by you in the ministry, she TOO will be blessed by you as her teacher mama!! :)
