Once again, we’ve made the decision to home school our kids. I honestly didn’t think we’d come to this decision again this year… mostly because of my work schedule and expectations… not because of “home schooling” itself.

But, some things were just too powerful to overcome… like our core philosophy and beliefs about health, safety, happiness and parenting.

I’ve come to discover that our reasons for home schooling are not necessarily the most common.

Go figure!

I’ll be sharing much more about the “why” behind our decision in upcoming posts, but suffice it to say, we want to raise healthy children and I’m not sure that school can afford that opportunity to the extent that home and parents can. (Speaking for ourselves and our situation, that is.)

Our kids will be back in a conventional school one day, I’m sure. By that time, I’m counting on the fact that they’ll be older and wiser, and better equipped to make healthy choices on their own… despite what others around them are choosing or offering!

Time will tell!

Let the fun begin…
