13 Days and Counting

Yes, we are all involved in this yearly countdown. This particular countdown involves the diminishing number of school days. At the beginning of every new school year, 180 is a big number. But at the end of every month, I am able to see that number get smaller and smaller.

As each year passes that we homeschool, the kids look forward to the countdown, as much, or more than me. I think Caleb and I are neck and neck this year, regarding who wants to see zero more. It makes me think that my homeschool children are not so different from their public school peers, at least in this sense.

And just for all of the doubters out there, I still do enjoy homeschooling, even after 5 years. The reason I enjoy the countdown is because I am looking forward to what follows. Summer vacation!
