Homeschooling Has Begun!

We are going to homeschool our kids, at least through elementary school.The idea is to let our kids be kids and not have them sit around a classroom all day AND utilize my education from BYU, I'm confident I can do a good job. Ruth is learning to write all her letters and numbers at the moment. I'm really excited to teach our kids. Will has started to sit with us during school time which is good practice for when he can participate more fully.

 I have so many fun ideas and am so happy I get to use all the cool stuff I learned in college. 


Also, Will is FINALLY binky free. I got fed up with his binkies on Sunday and snipped all the rubber parts off. When he asked for his binky at bedtime I gave it to him and told him it was broken. It hasn't been very traumatic, but he seems a lot more clingy to his blue blankie now.
