How the Very Organized Homeschool Mom Does It All
Posted by Bethany | 0 comments
I bound out of bed, full of energy at 6:00 a.m. I read the next chapter in My Utmost for His Highest and the Psalms, then breeze through level 3 of Jillian’s 30-Day Shred workout DVD. I don my chic, size 6, J. Crew outfit. As I saunter into my sparkling kitchen to make omelets and fruit cups for breakfast, my well-mannered...

Something that has helped since our beginning days of homeschooling six years ago was developing a homeschool schedule. We found tips in setting up a homeschool schedule in the Moore Formula Manual, which was a huge aid during our first year of homeschooling.

A Day in the Life of Homeschooling Boys
While I would love to be able to say I am one of those moms who has her days planned out, an organized schedule of events, or at least an agenda, the truth is that our day is often a series of tangents and bunny trails.
