I took the plunge and put the kids in public school. And then 4 weeks later I pulled them out. I know, I may not have given it a long enought try. I did consider that before pulling them out, but I decided my reasons for bringing them back home would never change, and I was just prolonging the inevitable. I liked the school. The kids had made friends, were making good grades, and 2 out of 3 liked their teachers. I have no complaints about that. I just missed my kids. I missed teaching my kids. I was truly heartbroken over it. And now that they are back home, we are just picking up where we left off, like they were never gone. They haven't once said that they regret being pulled out. I feel that homeschooling is just right for us. Today I told Clay I was going to teach Noah all about the Civil War, and he said, "I am so glad we are homeschooling them again." Truly, it is exciting gathering up what I am going to teach them.
Honestly, it is less stressful not doing the whole school routine. And this stage in my life, I am all about less stressful.
