Something to Remember As We Head Into the School Year


from an old post called "Cruisin' Down the Homeschooling Superighway":

Jennifer ... was looking for ways to reassure her husband (and herself) that she was actually spending enough time doing school work with their daughter. He was thinking that perhaps "school" should take from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

I put it this way:

Tell your husband to compare it to driving down the freeway at rush hour vs. off hours -- you reach your destination so much more quickly without all that added traffic.

Remembering that one, for my dh who thinks our schooling should look much more like 'school'. Now do you have a good analogy for not keeping a schedule? :)

Amy, I replied to this last week, but just now saw that my comment didn't go through. Arrgh! That keeps happening to me lately.

I think what I said was that maybe you could tell him that your lack of scheduling is the sign of a creative personality? ;)
