Another month...

Another month has passed so quickly. I can't believe it is the end of January today. School has gone very well this month. C is progressing and so is Ju. My high schoolers tend to do most of theirs on their own. S is working hard to graduate by the end of summer.
I don't know if I have said how much I love homeschooling. I love being with my children but more than that I love seeing their faces when they "get" it. I would have missed that and so much if they were away from home learning these things. No it's not easy, in fact some days it's really hard. It is my job and I have to treat it like I would any other job. I have to make sure the work gets done and I have to be there to provide guidance. My payment is not money though it is delight on a face when they understand something, snuggles on the sofa when we read books, laughter and smiles when we play a game that teaches but it fun. Oh it's so much more than money. Money is fleeting and temporary. Memories last a lifetime.
