    Today, we've been doing homeschool preschool for one month and we're all having a blast!

    Here's some pics of what we've been up to:

    I have lots more pics, but not on this computer.

    I am absolutely having the best time of my life, teaching my little ones. They're having a ball, and learning so much! Thank you to all here that inspire and help me along the way. :)

    Glad you guys are having fun! After a few years into it, it's sometimes hard to remember that it doesn't have to look like school and can be so fun! Thanks for the reminder.. keep up having fun!

    Can I start over with my son:?: I didn't even think of homeschooling at that age, I waited until he was in 7th. Something tells me my son wouldn't want to go that far back and go throught all those years again.:lol:;)

    Thank you so much for the encouragement, everyone! I never thought I would homeschool, but I am absolutely loving it so far.

    One thing I've already learned is to pace myself. I needed to remember that my kiddos are just very little and that there's no rush ... we have years and years.

    My goal for them until age 5 is for them to establish a love of learning. That's all. If they gain some skills in the process, I'll call it a bonus, but for now I just want them to enjoy themselves and come to love learning. :) So far we're in line with that. The kids look forward to "activity time" every day.
