Well, today we actually accomplished our first day of school. We did it! I was so nervous….4 kids…..4 grades…..feeling overwhelmed.
You know the hardest part of the day? Getting baby girl to quit. Quit working, quit talking, quit singing, quit carrying around her preschool book saying "I want to do more, mama.". Finally at 1pm I said "No more!" I don’t want to do any more school work!
The boys were done by 11am after starting at 9am. We did Bible, Language Arts, Spelling, Writing, Math, and Times Tales. Times Tales are working so well for my oldest son. He’s already learned four of his upper times tables. We were struggling with remembering them but now we’ve found what works!!
Whew. I feel so grateful that today went as well as it did! We prayed for the morning. God was good.
IN HIM…
Yay for a great first day! You got done quickly!
Did you ever figure out what you were having a problem with with Homeschool Tracker?
Love, Alyssa
That is wonderful! Yay, to a great first day! I hope this year will be a good one for you. I would be completely overwhelmed, I think. 😉

Thanks for the link on Times Tables! I am not ashamed to say that I HATE math so I am always looking for fun (or do I really mean easy) products to help me teach math. Glad you had a good first day. We are starting our second week.
