what do I do, what do I do, what to do.....

I have a big decision to make. I think I'm going to just let it evolve...but I have to choose something. Monday will determine a lot. I've been homeschooling the boys for a couple of years and Elizabeth for three, Emily for one. Rachel is almost three years old and I need to work. I need to make some more money, need to feel self-sufficient again....being a mom is so very important and I don't want to look back and regret this.

Homeschooling is great and I have to say I felt like it was the right thing for us over the past few years. The school system here is not the best, not even close....so it will either be private school or homeschool. But I'm tired....so tired of being the teacher, trying to motivate the kids to do their schoolwork and no longer convinced I can provide them what they need on that level. Their needs are so varied.

The principal is meeting with me Monday. She said Mark's grade only has five students!!! His ENTIRE grade! This would really be good....he needs the one on one....so does John. Maybe Elizabeth does as well. But A Beka is advanced and I'm nervous. I know they have moved forward...so far ahead in reading and doing fine in Math but what about other areas. Will they be bogged down with homework again? Will the other kids be nice? Will Rachel be okay with pre-k-3? Will they let me put her in half a day or maybe even half a day three times a week?

So many questions..Above and more.

time will tell

I hope
