Home schooling ** Calling for prayer and ideas**

The only time I have a HUGE urge to blog is when my home schooling is getting to me....

So am I the only one that every other months doubts herself with questions like:

Are they learning?
Is this worth it ?
Am I just too paranoid?
Is this my calling?
Am I selfish?

I realized that many things effect the way I think about schooling and they are:

Well how can I put this nicely ??? TOM!!!!!!
How crazy my month has been and what is going on in our family life?
When was the last time I had time for myself??? ALONE!!!

So knowing this I have decided that I am not allowed to make any decisions until I have rested prayed and take some much needed time away from the kids!!

Then I will start my search for many answers!!

Here are some and if you are able to help please do!!!

How do I know my kids are learning?
How do I divide my time in 4??
How do I start teaching my 4 year old that wants to learn today?
How do I balance my time and life?
What is the best way to teach my kids?

I need to plan and think about our next year !

I need lots of ideas for my 4 year old and my 7 th year old

May your day be one that counts!!!
