The Joy of Homeschooling

Today was a beautiful day. Amazingly perfect weather! Something we do not see often enough where we live. But today, it was lovely.
While most kids were being woken up for school my kids got to sleep in a bit.  While most kids were stuck inside the classroom on this glorious day, we were opening up our butterfly habitat and watching as our butterflies emerged from their chrysalis, pumped their wings to get them dry and the blood flowing, and then spread their wings for the first time and took flight.
While kids in public school were having a short 15-20 minute recess we were playing outside for more than an hour at a local park. While kids in public schools were eating lunch inside, we sat at the park and had a nice picnic lunch.
Ahhh the freedom of homeshooling. On days like today, we can take a break and bask in the sunshine and clear skies and the warmth of the day. We can always catch up on the weekend since school can be anytime or any day when you homeschool. Today was a beautiful day, however all weekend it will be raining.  So nice to think we can enjoy a day like today and catch up on work when the weather is not good and we are stuck inside. Days like today remind me how awesome homeschooling is!
