What we've been up too!!!

  Today was full of everything ..High and low emotions , and overwhelming findings . Not everything is perfect when we homeschool. Everyday I learn something new from the boys and my daughter.. I enjoy doing what I do , and I rather deal with my children's struggles the have some teacher point them out.  I know it sounds a bit , how do you say the word unconventional to say the least , but i feel that it's whats best... Homeschooling isn't for everyone I'll tell you that but anyone can make it work if they really want too. Where there is a will there is a way.  

In all honesty I am not a fan of the public school system ... Growing up I had so shitty teachers , and guess what I struggled with math so much that as i think of it how in the world did i graduate with that being my worst subject.. i will never know . and many the bullying was worst , i just never turned to my mother to tell her , i lacked that trust and feared what she say...

What many parents and teachers to know is that bullying comes in all kinds of forms and it never goes away , and if parents or teachers are involved it makes things that much worst.. Yeah we can say let them stand for themselves , yeah that's the problem children for the most part a innocent and mean no harm , it's others (kids ) that teach them to create themselves and mold there sense of living for survival . This is common , man do I hear sad stories all the time and the stories are what based on bullying .. There are bullying movements , and this that and the other but as far as I know they don't work .. I rather have my children by me than away .. i know i can't always hover over them or protect them , but while i can I will ... It's not to say that they don't interact with other kids  they do at different settings , the park , church , stores. So  in that aspect I 'm fine .... It's just the bullying that I worry about and the fact that also this generation seems way to ahead of themselves if you know what i mean... all in all , it's been on crazy day We closed out school doing yoga .Now, On to a new chapter in our book of homeschool...

peace-yess

Hanging in there....

It's honestly been the craziest two days , my brain is on a scatter trip .. in my life i have only felt like this a handful of times.. nothing crazy before ,but not this time...it was bad , i couldn't grasp my routine .. like there was a moment where i felt lost , and it wasn't till the end of the day that i was able to get a hold of myself ..literally , maybe because our school day was ending or somehow i regained my energy and focus, I'm not even sure ... but in the end it all worked out .. and I'm not driving myself crazy ... i feel a bit more calm just waking up at this time is no help. everyday I'm up at 3-4 am with my brain at ease...im having mental fights like whyyyyyyy!! i just want to sleeeeep!!! i mean because i will feel it later...and to top it off i have job interview friday , and that makes me nervous, but hopeful ... so i have to get my everything together and get it going!!! ahhhh! yeah I'm feeling the heat ..........however i will the you this ..
homeschooling has it's perks and loopholes, and it takes time to adjust too. its totally different from the public school system .. i prefer (homeschool) over public school. in a lot of ways it's better, see most teachers aren't pay a great deal , and because the aren't i feel like they just kind of give up and just teach to teach ... Not all , but think of it there is no passion or heart in some cases..The reason i even mention something like this is because  i experienced it. And it's really sad and understandable , if that makes any sense . My kids should enjoy learning. Not feel icky when they wake up too go to school only to find out the teacher is always screaming at him or he's being bullied and the teachers disregard those situations..(this shietttt aint cool)  so, instead of making a fuss at the school i take matters into my own hands , and here we are now ..(enough of that )

Overall the day was good , the science lesson was awesome   we had circle time and danced away our day ... thanks too youtube for having all kinds of kiddy songs too dance too that even my one year old joins the fun. ha! back to  another day of schedules and lesson planning ....

peace-

Back at it again...

    Two months ago I would have never thought that I would be homeschooling again. The plan originally was to move to the city and comeback to the valley and get the ball rolling . The boys would go to traditional public school, and that was that. But as you know we make plans and life says  "yeah right"...
      As a parent we know whats best for our children people are always going to have their opinions and criticize our ways , we just can't please everyone .. Whats important is that we seek out whats best for our kids regardless of the worlds view. because at the end of the day we have helped the come along way ... or am i wrong ? I mean we helped them walk , eat , talk etc. you name it .. and not that i don't accept what others tell me its just that I know my kid best thats all.... with all this the good thing is that I have done it before and it's not foreign...
 too be honest I'm excited and nervous but i can't let my little guys see it....its three in the morning and I'm just like wtf! go back to sleep ...(totally off )

..i think I have insomnia (self diagnose) but thats for a different topic..hehe .so what is a mom too do when she has a crazy day ahead of her  write about it , be about it Im kidding about the last part ....so off I go get my lesson ready and get the ball rolling , wait did I say that again...its Monday and I haven't had my coffee so bare with me jibber jabber!!! I love how I can come on here and be like bam !! feelings all laid out and I feel refreshed ...nah literally! i lack friends (on the real) and what better friend than a book or a writing platform..ha! but thats just a whole other conversation. Happy Monday to all !! Mondays still suck for me but I'm a fighter ( not technically , just a saying ) wink, wink. ha!!!!

peace- (throw back lunes)
