This year we enrolled to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.setonhome.org\/\"> Seton Home Study School<\/a> because I was stressed and tired this summer. Each summer I get a big kick out of curriculum planning, picking out books, finding books cheap etc. I did not have the energy this summer, so I just sent a pile of money to Seton and they sent me back a big box of books and daily lesson plans. The only thing is the day is much longer, but I am finding the lessons to be very redundant, so I am shaving off a little here, a little there. Normally I do not buy books that are redundant because books are not cheap.<br \/>\nThe hardest part of the day is my seven year old&#8217;s reading lessons. Each day he reads a story from his <i>This is Our Town<\/i> reader in this terrible little boy monotone like &#8230;&#8221;At&#8230;St&#8230;.Francis&#8230;Church&#8230;Faththth-err&#8230;Michaels&#8230;met&#8230;the&#8230;pas&#8230;tor&#8230;<br \/>\nFaththth-errr&#8230;.Carl&#8230;&#8221; I love my son, but man, this is penance. I have not stayed awake for one reading lesson yet. Not only do I fall asleep, I fall into a deep sleep, dreams and everything. My other son will come and nudge me to wake me up and I will get angry at him for waking Mommy up in the middle of the night. Then I come to my senses and Posco is still reading &#8220;&#8230;yess&#8230;Pee-terrr&#8230;Mar-tin&#8230;anDuh&#8230;MaTT&#8230;Lay, lay, Lake&#8230;are&#8230;nice&#8230;boyz&#8230;said&#8230;Faththth-errr Carl&#8230;&#8221; I love my children, and I love homeschooling. I am so grateful my son&#8217;s reading is improving because I was going to start begging someone to put me out of my misery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are just starting to get into the routine for the new school year.
