Pre D-day or homeschool tutoring 101

Okay, so the first day of my homeschooling will probably not be a combat attack of any kind....just my nervousness. My pre d day......buying my curricuculum. Yes, tomorrow will most likely be the day. I have a great and encouraging friend who is going to order our school stuff together. She is showing me how she does things so maybe, I can starting off with as minimal surprises as possible. If I am imaging D-day as the first day of school....maybe I should get some camo and green paint for the face! Anyway, Zach is getting excited and so am I, we are enjoying summer,but rather busy. I will let yall know how my buying went. Wish me luck.

Summertime.....

We are done with public school for Zach.

I went to a few of the events that always accompany the last days. Field day, awards and last day party. I was beginning to think, that Zach was going to miss all those cool little things that make the days fun. I will not bore you with all the details...but let me say that day of school was a BIG conformation from God that I was doing the right thing. I was already at the school for the party and we did not even stay we left early. It is bad when an 11year old tells me that he is "done" with the school. Just when I was reconsidering this homeschooling thing, something happens and God is giving me a little nudge to remind me that He is guiding us.

I am know starting the process of getting myself together and buying books. I am pretty excited. I have a veteran who is holding my hand with all this. Wish me luck!
