It has been quite an interesting ride this past "almost" month of homeschooling...I truly cannot describe how much fun I have had. Teaching my own daughter has taught me a great deal about myself and also taught me how much I need to learn. As a person who attended some private and public school, I thought that I had a good overall education. I got my bachelors from Wittenberg, a Masters from EKU along with halfway to a doctorate from EKU. I feel shortchanged by my school experience in the elementary, middle and high school years. I am learning so much more than I did then and really enjoying it! I am reading books that I should have been taught in high school and college, but was never taught. I am learning things about American history that I never knew.
I am pleased with Heather's progress and we have a full fledged classroom at home. It was wonderful to be outside today and enjoy a walk along with reading on our deck with Heather in the hammock and me in a comfy chair. School is a word that can apply to many places and school outside was wonderful. So, in my world of learning and teaching, tomorrow is a glorious thing.
