TGIF . . . perfect fit

This week I love homeschooling because sometimes we find resources that are a perfect fit for our family.


Finding a perfect fit is not easy, in any realm of life.  Clothing: everyone has their own unique body and style and meshing the two is a constant challenge (at least for people like me).  A home that suits your family, desires, and budget can take a lifetime (or a really amazing contractor).  Likewise finding the right style of learning, the right curriculum, and the right resources for homeschool can be a journey of epic proportions.

That is why it feels so amazing when you find a perfect fit.  I'm not foolish enough to think  these things will always be perfect for us, but it is nice to feel like we are doing well for right now.  Right now, math is getting done, and even getting enjoyed some days.  Right now, I LOVE the boys' language arts curriculum (and the one Athena will be moving into soon), and they are having a lot of fun with it as well.  Right now, the kids are all picking up information from history and remembering it.  Right now, we continue to have fun exploring science together, and I always come out understanding things better once I've shown them to the kiddoes at the most basic level (which should make things easier in our future schooling).

I can only hope that we will continue to be blessed in finding resources and styles that work this well throughout our homeschooling adventure.
