(Cue the Gilligan’s Island theme). I recorded a video of our homeschool classroom and it feels a little like a shipwreck. It’s a bit laborious to watch. I suppose it comes with the territory, in the world of homeschooling, there is so much to digest and share. Anyway, I received some e-mail questions about our decision so I thought I would try to answer some of those in this video, as well as offer an inside look at our family setup. This is our basement that Jim finished a few years ago. It’s a little rough, but perfect for our needs and I am grateful we have the designated space for this purpose. I’m sorry I’m not a better communicator, I think I say “we are really excited” about 5 times.
Today was the last day of traditional school for the boys. Although I am still apprehensive about the unknowns, my heart is happy because the boys are so excited. Tonight as I was writing this blog entry, Gabe came down and gave me this note.
Just the encouragement I needed. Thanks Gabe.

I think your schoolroom looks great! I was so pleased to hear that you are homeschooling now–we have been on our own HS journey for almost 4 years now. You will LOVE it, even through the ups and downs and "I-don't-wannas!" I wanted to let you know about a wonderful resource for teacher supplies–it's a store called Education Avenue. It is at 6420 Pearl Road in Parma Heights (http://www.education-avenue.com/). I discovered it by accident one day and it has been INCREDIBLE. I am not affiliated with them, I just love the store.
Good luck and God bless on your journey!!
