I love reading about the details of what you've shared with your kids in a normal average day, and it does give me hope. In addition to all the "theories" of homeschooling, reading your practical posts helps me see that yes, I too could do this. (My oldest is only 3, so we're right on the decision brink, though who am I kidding? If I DON'T homeschool, it will shock everyone who knows me...)

LOL, JoVE, that's exactly what it's like! People putting new stuff in my brain. Easy for them, with those fresh new brains! “I find it hard enough some days to keep up with what one kid wants to teach me, much less having 3 or 4 putting new stuff in your brain at that rate.”
