Welcome to Home Sweet Homeschool

An introduction is in order!

I am the mother of 4 wonderful children. My oldest has graduated and is now enrolled in a criminal justice program. Her GPA 3.8

My oldest son will graduate this year and plans on working for a year then attending preaching school.

My youngest two are still in there journey.

Our homeschool hasn't been extremely structured. We have taken a mostly eclectic approach to learning. Our goals have always been to teach them as we go.

Our children have made rabbit hutches, a deck, worked on plumbing, and helped with car repairs. They have raised rabbits, cats-dogs, and fish. We have introduced them to farm life, small town life and big city life.

In our travels we focused on learning while having fun. We play games with our children, read to them, discuss books, watch the behind the scenes in making of movies. Utilized the library, encouraged them to be independent in there studies.

My goal with this blog is to share stories and ideas with other mother's. I hope to encourage you to continue the journey!
