Homeschooling

Justin and I have always known we would homeschool our children. There are MANY reasons, but yesterday I came across a post on The Pioneer Woman's blog that was written by a guest blogger's daughter and I thought it was so good I wanted to share. You can find it here. Many of the things she talks about are reasons we feel it's important to teach our children at home.

On the same subject, I have begun looking into different curricula as Chloe is only about a year away from starting kindergarten. Talk about OVERWHELMING! I have a hard time even knowing where to start!!

Do you homeschool? If so, what advice do you have? What curriculum do you use? Help me!!! ;)

Ashleigh, I'm totally blogstalking you right now, but I loved this post. I am feeling like we should live in the same town because we have so many of the same interests!
I am going to look into the links your friend put up, if you don't mind :) I've really felt led ever since my oldest was a baby to be prepared for homeschooling, and it's about time I start prepping, too. He'll be 4 this fall, so I really should get going! Good luck, and I hope you don't mind if I subscribe to your blog :)
